Company
Structure
The IPTE Group consists of two core businesses - Factory
Automation and Contract Manufacturing -, each combining
a number of specific activities for the electronics industry.
While these business units operate with autonomy, IPTE
endeavors to capitalize on synergy possibilities between
the two business units.
Factory Automation
The Factory Automation business unit develops and markets
test and production systems which it integrates into completely
automated production and assembly lines for the electronics
industry. Initially, IPTE was established as a producer
of test equipment for printed circuit boards (PCBs), before
expanding its activities to include production equipment,
which it integrated with the test equipment in integrated
production lines, and the assembly and testing of end-of
line systems. Today IPTE focuses on the design and integration
of complete production lines, providing full factory automation.
With over 10 years of experience in the automation industry,
IPTE understands the challenges of the sector. Through
continuous investments in know-how and new technologies,
the company endeavors to develop this expertise in production
and test automation to provide its customers with turnkey
systems that combine all the different solutions required
in electronic production.
In order to achieve this IPTE combines the expertise of all its subsidiaries.
IPTE RF, And-Elec and Antest in France provide in test, test systems and test applications. The Prodel
Group supplies flexible assembly systems and solutions. The company specialises in developing and producing automated transport systems and assembly technology for clients in various industries.
