Does your infrastructure have potential for optimisation? We optimise your installations and are experts in energy measurement and the implementation of energy-saving motors. By using Red Power drives and flat belt drives, we reduce your maintenance effort, increase power efficiency and achieve energy savings of 2-5 %.
Good maintenance prevents unscheduled machine breakdowns. Whether for lift gearboxes, ventilation systems or standard pumps. Our specialists for visual condition assessment do not miss any details. It goes without saying that we also take care of re-greasing, ball bearing analyses, a new laser alignment and many other maintenance tasks.
Do you need a service specialist for e-motors? Our employees who deal with the maintenance and repair of e-motors have completed a qualification programme run by SKF, the world’s largest manufacturer of rolling bearings.
Through constant training, our employees are always informed about the latest developments. We are also happy to train your employees and shed light on all important factors relating to electric motors in our training seminars, such as the question: What influences the operating life of rolling bearings?
We assist you with heat recovery and replace your heat recovery drive including controls or the ball bearings of your heat recovery wheels. For this we rely on Emotron heat recovery drives and help you optimise your heat recovery.
Those who control and know the condition of their machines are safe from expensive surprises. Sudden stops in production are avoided. The costs for repairs and breakdowns may be reduced. Machine running times may be extended and the remaining useful life can be better estimated.
As an authorised service partner of Grundfos pumps, we are happy to take care of your concerns
1930
Foundation of ZITT
In 1930, the company was founded by Jürg Zitt as a small motor winding company at Lessingstrasse in Zurich.
1960
Relocation
The growing business required a move. From 1960 onwards we were located at Birmensdorferstrasse 272 in Zurich.
1980
Entry of Daniel Hüsser
Daniel Hüsser joined the company, which was taken over by Lacher and Schmucki in 1970.
1987
Takeover
In May 1987, Daniel Hüsser took over the company. Under his leadership, the winding company became a service-oriented enterprise with a great deal of commitment, which steadily expanded its area of expertise. By taking up repairs of various electrical drives, both in their own workshop and directly at the customer's site, nothing more stood in the way of the company's growth.
1990
Building services
In the 1990s, the switch from industrial motors to building services and thus repairs to lifts, ventilation systems and pumps took place.
2001
Switch requires relocation
The focus on building services required new premises, which were occupied at Eichstrasse 3 in Zurich.
2013
ZKPM – the greatest success
With the vision and idea of energy-saving drives, Daniel Hüsser began experimenting with various motors, frequency converters and drive systems. In 2013, he achieved a breakthrough and our ZKPM compact drive was born. In the meantime, our ZKPM drive unit has been successfully installed in various systems and has a patent pending in the EU.
2014
Grundfos
In 2014 we became specialists in the service and maintenance of Grundfos pumps.
2020
Stallikon
At the foot of the Üetliberg we found our new home in 2020. On more than 1'200 square metres we find solutions for all problems and promote our zeitgeist. We look forward to welcoming you to our company building in Stallikon.
Get to know us better. Our CEO, Daniel Hüsser, will take you on a tour of our everyday work.
