MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
No matter which project: technical expertise
in automation and laser technology
A concept. No compromises.Consistent development in all fields and constant growth over 15 years. The year 2007 was the right time to take a large step into the future. New company offices, all departments under one roof, more room for new challenges.

The engineering assembly hall.The company premises in Berlin-Rudow – all departments under one roof.
The production line. A glimpse of the engineering assembly hall for JIT production with ultimate quality.
The development and production of tailormade assembly, testing and
welding machines for the communications and electrical industry:
That was the goal set in 1993 by the four specialists from four different
fields – economics, technology, software and electrical engineering –
when they founded itec GmbH. Today the company, itec Automation &
Laser AG, is a well respected company both nationally and internation-
ally and has the best resources to meet the manifold challenges in the
field of automation with integrated laser technology.
The integration of the first laser in an automation project in 1995 was
a milestone in the history of the company. Its influence can still be felt
today – since then, lasers have been used in almost all mechanical engi-
neering projects. In 1998 itec launched its first standard laser unit on
a granite base with precision shafts driven by a linear induction motor:
the vmax G. This was followed by other highly specialised machinery,
demand grew – and the need for new premises. In 2007 all depart-
ments were united under one roof in the new premises in Berlin-Rudow,
fully equipped to meet the very latest requirements.
From here itec can offer its extensive expertise – from the design stage to
a fully operational laser system. Using proven state-of-the-art technology
combined with the know-how of our highly qualified staff, gained from
years of experience. For certified quality according to DIN ISO 9001:2000,
used by reputable customers in the most diverse fields.

Portal. Precision shafts. Device. Laser. Automation.Components plus competence – for serial production and tailormade systems.
Your project.
Always in the forefront.
Think. Create. Implement.Qualified and committed staff. This is what enables itec to maintain its own high qualitystandards. Thinking for the customer, plus the dynamics of innovation and the technicalexpertise of itec's designers, software technicians, mechanical and electrical engineersare the basis for our lasting success.

Marketing. Quality management. Purchasing. Three departments, a common expertise.
Training at itec. Practical training to a successful end.
Project planning.Individual planning for each order.
Think. Create. Implement. That is the motto which every itec employee
follows as their contribution to the overall success of the company.
Think. This describes the ability of itec employees to see things from
the point of view of the customer – for highly customised solutions
ready for production, offering both technical and economic integrity.
Create. The task of itec team leaders is to focus the innovation ability
and technical expertise of all specialists involved in a project on their
common goal. For efficient multidisciplinary collaboration, in constant
communication with the customer.
Implement. Step three of the itec motto comprises implementation
of a project and the provision of comprehensive add-on services –
in time, in budget.
The individual requirements of customers demand the complete
creative ability and flexibility of itec's employees. Combine forces,
speed up processes, think through new concepts – all part of team-
work. Think, create, implement are also the criteria we apply when
training committed young employees in the latest technological
developments. Training them to become qualified employees who
can match the high standards of the company in the next generation.

Flat hierarchies, direct communication
internally and externally and state-of-the-art
equipment create an ideal environment for
quality »made by itec«.

The vmax G series. With large mounting dimensions and open design - ideal formachining large-scale workpieces or sub-assemblies, also as throughput production.
The vmax S series.Laser welding and cutting for individual pieces and small components – flexible, quick, high precision.
Top performance. Day in, day out.itec also uses its extensive expertise in the construction of special equipment with integrated lasers for serial production – for the vmax laser systems offering optimum efficiency for laser cutting and welding.
The vmax C series.Laser processing for sheet metals and medium sized sub-assemblies.
Whether for machining small parts or sub-assemblies, from sheeting
directly from a coil, sheet metal board or pipes: The basic models of all
vmax machines are configured for a specific application and equipped
with high performance lasers from 50 W to 5 kW. Granite base, high
performance control components and precision shafts driven by linear
induction motors qualify vmax laser systems for all applications where
the highest accuracy and dynamics are required.
As well as the standard versions, itec laser systems can be fitted with
additional components according to production needs: part specific
clamps, CO2, ND:YAG or disk lasers, robots for rapid, safe handling of
parts and customised transport systems. Furthermore quality assurance
systems such as welded seam control during running operation ensure
optimum performance tested for serial production.

No matter how different products and production structures may be –
the result is always the same: a system designed to fulfil requirements
perfectly, manufactured with high quality materials and components.
From the initial feasibility study to the design phase through to instal-
lation, itec is always in close communication with its customers.
Operator training and a comprehensive after sales service ensure long-
term successful production – right from the start.
