First SPU in AHCZ
April 3, 2023


We are very pleased to be able to officially launch the first SPU (Small Production Unit) in our plant. The „Samag-4 milling and automatic deburring“ project has started already in 2019, when the first ideas about automatic robotic deburring began to emerge. Despite a lot of obstacles related to testing, measuring, or debugging blocks, it was managed to a successful end. The result of 3.5 years of work is thus an acceleration of the continuous production time, the elimination of errors and health problems that occurred during manual de-needling.

Installation of a new block assembly line
