Your Partner in Contract Manufacturing
We develop, build and test fully working and tested machines for technology companies. Bring us a brief, a prototype or a full set of drawings, and we take it from there.
You have a machine that needs building, and a business to run. Hand the manufacturing to a partner you trust and get back to what you do best.
As a contract manufacturer of complex machinery, we cover the whole project: analysis and design, purchasing, production, assembly, testing and logistics. You decide how much of it we take on. Our customers range from global OEMs to startups still finding their feet.
Trusted by leading technology OEMs across photonics, semiconductors, life sciences and beyond
Build to Print
Whether you need a build to print contract manufacturer because you have exceeded your in-house capacity, require value-added services, or your strategic plans call for outsourcing.
Tech Group can help you.
Build to Spec
You have a problem to solve, an idea, or a half-finished prototype. We take it from concept through to a production-ready machine.
Our specialists handle design, engineering, supply chain, manufacturing, assembly, testing and installation.
Product Lifecycle Management
Long-term support from the team that built your machine: spare parts, service and maintenance, upgrades and redesigns.

Market Focus
See all markets
Semiconductor Technology
Precision machines that make, test and package chips. We build the wafer handling, positioning and inspection systems inside them, working to nanometre tolerances.
Photonics Technology
Devices that work with light: photonic chips, laser modules, LiDAR. We build the opto-mechanical machines that assemble and test them with sub-micron precision. We are a member of EPIC, the European Photonics Industry Consortium.
Laboratory & Life Sciences
Equipment for laboratories, pharmacies and diagnostics. We build robotic dispensing systems, isolators and instrument production lines where cleanliness and documentation are non-negotiable.
Additive Manufacturing
Precision machinery for the next generation of additive manufacturing: 3D nano-printing, ultra-precise material dispensing and printed electronics. We help equipment makers move from prototype to manufacturable product.
Test & Measurement
Automated optical inspection cells, industrial X-ray and 3D CT inspection systems, metrology stations and end-of-line test equipment with precise motion control, reliable machine vision and tested software.
Who we work with
Startups
You're building your first product and don't have an in-house engineering or manufacturing team. We co-develop with you. from concept through to a working machine. and grow with you as you scale.
Scale-ups
Your prototype works, but production is a different problem. We take on engineering, sourcing and assembly so your team can keep selling and improving the product instead of building a factory.
Established OEMs
You have a proven product, mature drawings and known volumes. You need a reliable manufacturing partner who delivers consistently and keeps unit cost under control. We handle procurement, assembly, testing and shipping.
We cover the whole process from design and engineering to assembly, testing and lifecycle services
A customer-centric approach, open communication, visibility and accountability at all levels within the process and organisation provides the basis of successful long-term customer partnerships.
While working with customers from several industries we have gained knowledge and experience. Our project managers with engineering backgrounds are the single point of contact throughout the project overseeing delivery, quality and cost.
As a machine building contract manufacturer, we understand the importance of intellectual property rights and non-disclosures. All IP will remain as the property of our customers with Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) covering all our customer relationships.
Also, electronic document control, physical barrier constraints, limited access areas and proprietary agreements ensure the protection of customers’ intellectual property.
Our mechanical engineering team has a diverse range of experience and expertise. All of our qualified and experienced engineers use the latest version of the SolidWorks CAD software.
Our engineering process is guided by several standards and directives, including the Machinery Safety Directive with ergonomic design principles.
We always strive to take into account design for manufacturing (DFM), design for assembly (DFA), and the cost and quality of the product.
Electrical equipment and systems are a vital component of product development in many industries. A successful electrical system for a demanding destination is made with industry knowledge, exceptional expertise and skilled design work.
Tech Group’s design engineers create electrical and control system diagrams, select components and programme the logic for numerous sectors and all sorts of application, depending on the customer’s requirements.
Typically, automation design is part of a larger entity in which other design expertise is included. Our automation design expertise includes:
- Industrial hardware and software design
- Wide range of PLC families from Siemens, Beckhoff, Omron, Allen-Bradley and Mitsubishi
All common programming languages in the fields of PLC and user interface programming are used. We utilise a wide range of industrial robot programming, including KUKA and ABB.
Tech Group’s aggressive pursuit of high-quality, low-cost suppliers, locally and globally, together with continuous monitoring and improvement of the supplier base has resulted in a diverse and robust supply chain that is beneficial for all our customers.
The suppliers we use for a particular project is dependent by delivery requirements (quality, volume, lead times) of our customer.
Tech Group has in-house capabilities and experience to build the most challenging industrial automation and robotics solutions.
Testing ensures that the end product is suitable for its intended use, and the end-user receives a high-quality and reliable machine.
Tech Group’s effective testing services guarantee a high-quality product that functions reliably. One of Tech Group’s in-house services is Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT).
All manufactured systems undergo a rigorous testing phase per the system’s specifications, guaranteeing that all components work together.
Optimising all programmes for proper performance and cycle times. Dry-testing and debugging are part of Tech Group’s standard procedures and performed before delivery and installation.
Our professional technicians have the competence and know-how to install the manufactured machinery fast, efficiently and safely.
Depending on the project, some electrification can be completed on-site and then commissioned.
Depending on your needs, we are eager to help you as much as possible.
We’ve had many different lifecycle services agreements over the years with our customers, including a mix of various aspects:
- Spare part manufacturing and delivery
- Rebuild & upgrades
- Design modifications
- Relocation of the machines
- Maintenance and service agreements
- Training
