Cencorp Focuses on R&D for Depaneling, Other Automation Solutions
September 17, 2009 |Estimated reading time: 1 minute
LOHJA, Finland — Following Cencorp’s acquisition of Savcor Alfa Oy in 2009 and the addition of their laser technology to Cencorp’s existing range of automated production solutions, Cencorp have finalised a new business strategy. The priority will be to provide a more comprehensive range of fully automated manufacturing solutions to replace the standard machine operator at market competitive rates. Cencorp also plans to grow by acquisition.
The company plans to maximize economies achieved by integrating Savcor Alfa and Cencorp, expanding areas of activity, increasing product offerings, and reducing costs. These activities will be focused in Europe, the Americas, Russia, and Asia. Cencorp’s parent company, Savcor Group Oy, has committed the necessary additional financing facility for these initatives.
The new Cencorp range encompasses complete automation solutions for materials handling, de-paneling PCBs, odd-form component placement, test handling, laser applications, label placement, and final assembly. This can either be as stand-alone applications or as a fully integrated automated line linked by a transport system. Line design/development, installation, training; spare parts, and technical service and support are all part of the overall offering.
Cencorp will reduce overhead by combining operations and concentrating on areas of key strength by locating their R&D facilities in Salo and Mikkeli. The current headquarters at Lohja will close before June 1, 2010, once the production and processes have been re-located. The company now intend to concentrate on R&D, sales and marketing, after-sales service and providing total customer support, outsourcing the manufacture of equipment to key partners located in strategic global locations.
