sem ltd

SEM as a company has come a long way from our origins in 1914, building rotating electrical equipment for telephone exchanges, into a world class spindle and servomotor manufacturer supplying customers that provide machinery to every industrialised country in the world. SEM is also on a journey of cultural change, putting people at the centre of everything we do, and building an environment where respect and self-improvement are celebrated. We strive for excellence in our work, with the ultimate mission to provide the best quality servomotors on time to our customers. We know that the best way to achieve this is by having the right people and investing in them so they reach their full potential. We recently had our efforts in this area recognised with a Bronze Investors in People Award. We design, manufacture and supply servomotors to drive system integrators and large OEMs worldwide. SEMs core products are servo and spindle motors. These motors are used in motion control applications such as machine tools, robots, printing, packaging and process equipment where accurate control and positioning are required. SEM as a company is unique; and it is the talent and excellence of our staff that keeps us in our world class position. In fact, our business model, named TogetherBetter, grew out of a people engagement initiative designed to empower everyone at SEM with the knowledge, skills and autonomy for them to excel in their roles. We believe that in order for us to be successful, we need to have a long-term vision, the tools and methodology to achieve it, and to believe in the importance of what we do. We believe that our success as a company is all about our people, and as such make every effort to ensure that the benefits of our success are used to further improve our facilities and offering to our staff. We also believe that as part of SEM we have core values that go to the heart of what makes us unique and successful. This includes having pride in SEM and its products; taking responsibility and making decisions on a day to day basis; approaching challenges with a positive mind-set; engaging with everyone with respect; promoting safety and wellbeing of all our colleagues; and continually striving for excellence.
