Visitors observed skilled hands adjusting precision tooling for a new pushbutton series—conceptualized, designed, built, and tested entirely on site.


The group moved into the plastic injection department, where high-precision machines moulded rugged component housings with consistent, repeatable quality. Just a short walk away, raw metals were being transformed into terminals and contact blocks by automated stamping and machining systems.


“We’re not dependent on outside suppliers for critical parts,” explained the factory manager. “By keeping everything internal, we maintain full control over quality, timelines, and product customization.”
