Here you will find the latest news so that you always know what is new.
Welcome guys!
There’s a lot going on at the moment, and not just on our construction site. We are also highly increasing our staff! Claudio supports us in the assembly departement. Patrick, as the production planner, has an overview of our manufacturing department. Kevin has been supporting us since August as our FORMBASE-specialist and Martin is our new addition in the engineering department.
Plant shipping
The unit on the far left weighs almost a ton on it’s own. In addition, a few hundred kilograms are added by the other two components. We will integrate the system into the customer’s existing production process on site.
Training start 2022
Two weeks ago, our new apprentices started their training at k-tech. Welcome you two and thank you for your trust. Raphael starts his training as a cutting machine operator and Daniel as a mechatronics engineer. We wish you a lot of fun and look forward to seeing your development over the next few years.
Video shoot at k-tech
Our customer 8tree from the aviation & aerospace industry is among the last 10 participants for the State Prize for Young Companies 2022. A film team from Mannheim visited us today to shoot a video about them.
The film team shot manufacturing processes and product application examples.
We are excited to see the result and keep our fingers crossed.
Thesis at k-tech
Theses are also possible with us. Michael has been writing his engineering thesis at our company since the beginning of August. Welcome to k-tech! We look forward to supporting you in your further education. And are happy to hearing about your findings and the new projects that can result from them. We never stop learning and look forward to your input!
News from our new building
The facade is in place, only the roof is missing. Soon the interior work can begin. From the end of the year, the first components can be manufactured in our new production hall. We are already looking forward to the autumn machine back.
New contemporary brand
The name Particle Cleaning Industrial Solution (PCIS for short) already suggests it: Our new contemporary brand specializes in technical cleanliness. Everything related to the topic can be found on our new homepage. Feel free to visit www.pc-is.de !
Employee Update
For the summer months and holiday season, we have once again obtained strong support. A temporary welcome to Florian and Jonas in our team and thank you for supporting us until autumn.
From k-tech for space
Here you can see our DMG 5-axis milling machine manufacturing a component that is used in aerospace. The longevity and stability of the individual components is extremely important for the quality assurance of our customer’s system process.

Staff Information
We have been able to welcome two new employees to our production since May. Felix supports us as a mechatronics engineer and Benni as an industrial mechanic. Welcome you two. We look forward to having you on the team!
Feasibility study: bending process as basis for automation
The challenges of this feasibility study were the high requirements for the formal fidelity of the later product. In particular, the bending angle, leg lengths and flatness. In addition, the tool had to have a hugh variety, so a wide variety of lengths and angles could be realized. Great attention also had to be paid to the clamping of the workpiece, since an exact orientation of the stop surfaces to the later bends was required. In addition, no pinch marks were allowed to be seen on the product.
Future only with apprenticeship
No concrete plan yet what to do after you graduate from school? 🤔 How about a technical apprenticeship? 💡 On page 73 of the new issue “Zukunft nur mit Ausbildung” of the IHK Konstanz you will find our training offer 😀👍 The magazine contains all the important information on the subject of training (also very interesting for parents). We look forward to new, young talents and your application! ✍️📝 The magazine can be read online here (only in German). But it is also laid out free of charge at the schools in the district.
Update construction site
Our new building is slowly taking shape. The piles have now been set and the floor slab has been cast. Now the construction can begin.
Complex component
The die shown is only the counterpart of the actual component, which is used in the manufacture of seals in the automotive sector. We were able to produce this very complex component with our wire EDM machine.
Plant ready for dispatch
Another system for our customer is ready and on its way. This time not only to Germany, but also to the East. Our customer’s premises in Romania are already looking forward to the UV gluing system Made in Germany! We are proud to be able to support international and national customers in production with our assemblies and systems.
New Video up!
A brand new video is up on our Youtube channel. If you are interested in UV adhesive automats, we highly recommend to watch our new video

Groundbreaking for our new bulding!
Since today the excavators roll on our cunstruction site. Our team can look forward to get more working space. Because of the really good order situation, our team needs more space, so we can still manufacture great products for our costumers. The groundbreaking started today. We are happy to see our company growing!
Process automation
With the realization of this assembly machine, we were able to combine several processes in one place: Cleaning, application of two beads of adhesive, encapsulation on both sides. Including monitoring the amount of encapsulation using a load cell and subsequent installation of the assemblies. Furthermore, the circuit boards are programmed via spring-loaded contact pins and tested electrically and optically. Thanks to cleverly interlaced processes, we have managed to keep the cycle time of the system under one minute despite the long casting, bonding and curing times. The automatic assembly machine is easily accessible from all sides, thus ensuring ergonomic and economical work.
Mechanical engineering easier than ever
Your idea, our technology! Easy as that!
YOut don’t have to worry about anything. We will provide you with everythin. Our designers bring the mechanical drawings, our production team manufacture the components and our technicians assembly the modules and plants. Everything under one roof! We construct, produce and automate your assembly. No matter if its tiny or big, for earth or space.
Millimetre components
The leftovers of our CNC-components look great. For our costumer, who is in the electronic sector and sensor technology, we are turning components accurate to the millimetre. We used our 5-axis miling machine and our wire edm machine. The finished component is part of a assembly.
Serial production
With our manual and automatic opening machines for urin samples, we support the field of sport so doping doesn’t stand a chance!
End of the year rally
Just before christmas we are need to finish some mechanical modules and assemblies. With our great team, we can do it easily

The Nachi Europe GmbH has certified k-tech on the plattform Go2automation as his partner. We are really glad about this.
An annex for k-tech
We are building an annex for our assembly and manucaturing, so we can still produce the plants and special machines for our customers in the future. The groundbreaking will be in autumn 2021.
New article on Go2automation
In this plant we integrated a robot cell with sensors, so all six work sequences could be combined. Before that the work sequences were performed in different places. Our new plant is minimazing space and additional travel.
New employees
Since april a new mechatronics engineer is working in our assembly team. We welcome our new marketing colleague since February as well. We are always looking foreward to gain new clever heads in our team and welcome them.
Great news: Our new homepage is online!
During the last few weeks the whole k-tech team has prepared our new homepage. So we are more than happy to present our homepage in a new design. Our goal was, to show our costumers what we do and can do in a really easy and simple way. Because we as a complete system supplier, always want to be technically up-to-date, our homepage should be the same.
