AboutSchniewindt GmbH & Co. KG
The Power of Electrifying Ideas
Schniewindt was founded in Westphalia in 1829 and is a performance-oriented, independent family company.
Since the invention of the “Schniewindt grid” in 1902, we have been producing electrical high-voltage resistors, making us one of the first suppliers of electrical devices for power distribution.
Modern processing
technology By using the most modern processing technology, we are constantly developing our products according to the needs of our customers . With our global partnerships, we are one of the leading manufacturers of electrical high-performance resistors and devices and systems for electrical heating technology for industrial and commercial purposes.
Schniewindt heating technology includes the development, manufacture and sale of heaters for heating gases, liquids and solids . These devices also reflect our knowledge in areas where there is a risk of explosion and firedamp. With complete systems including electronic controls and pumps, we offer process-optimized and energy-efficient solutions from a single source.
In electrical resistance technology, we develop and produce customer-specific high-performance and high-voltage resistors for various areas of application, such as filter and damping circuits in HVDC and FACTS systems. We can look back on a large number of successful projects worldwide.
For energy transmission technology, we offer solutions for voltage and/or current measurement based on proven sensor technology. At the customer's request, the systems are also available with optical-digital data transmission for use in future-oriented, digitally automated substations.
Supplier of modern traffic
technology We use our knowledge , based on our many years of experience in heating and resistance technology, to equip modern traffic technology. On the one hand, we sell heating systems for preheating diesel engines in ship and railway technology and, on the other hand, braking resistors for electrical drive technology in the maritime (shipbuilding, offshore) and industrial sectors.
175 employees face new challenges every day according to the motto "powered by electrifying ideas" .
