Programme: Innovations and Competitiveness

The main goal of the project is to expand and improve Vekatech's activities through technological modernization. The specific objectives address individual parameters such as: expansion of production capacity in the key stage of SMT assembly; continuity, synchronization and high efficiency of production processes; consistently high quality; increasing resource efficiency; increasing digitalization; increasing sales and revenue.
The implementation of the project is aimed at satisfying our basic need to provide the missing capacity and improve the performance of the key stage of surface assembly.
The project covers one activity - the acquisition of new technologies with an emphasis on the digitization of production processes with a view to expanding production capacity. It will be realized through the purchase of the following fixed assets: 1a module segment of 2 mounting machines for assembly of SMD components; 2. a machine for automatic optical inspection of solder paste and SMD components.
As a result of the purchase of the new segment of automatic assembly machines, the capacity for the most productive stage of SMT assembly - the picking and placing of components will rise by about 1/3. The purchase of all assets will increase by about 12.5 the total capacity in the entire production process of SMT assembly. We will achieve a higher level of independence by equipping a second own SMT assembly line and the entailing reduction in production costs. The accuracy of the machines and the precise optical inspection will lead to a high quality of the manufactured products. We will also achieve a significant effect of resource efficiency - in terms of time, raw materials, electrical energy. As a result of the new assets, the time to fulfill orders will be reduced and the produced volumes will increase - by an average of 5% for each product group. We will increase the company's sales revenue by about 15% after the end of the project.
