Blumenbecker Slovakia
Reliable for 22 years
Slovakia was founded in 1993 after the peaceful division of Czechoslovakia. Since 2009, the approximately 5.5 million inhabitants have had the euro in their wallets. There are more than 200 castles and palaces in the country, which covers an area of almost 50,000 km². And Blumenbecker has also been represented in this landlocked country in Central Europe for over 20 years.
On the road to success in Slovakia since 2001
The company was founded in 2001 as a subsidiary of Blumenbecker Prag s.r.o. Today, 32 employees work at two locations in Bratislava. Engineering and assembly are under one roof. The robot service is only a few minutes' walk away. The proximity to the university is a great advantage for attracting qualified junior staff.
Blumenbecker Slovakia covers the entire spectrum of automation technology for new plants. This includes 3D planning of robot cells as well as offline simulation. This makes it possible to design and check manufacturing processes in a dynamic 3D environment.
Qualified technicians take over the robot service: Whether maintenance, repair or reprogramming and retooling - and that independent of the manufacturer.
Likewise, there is a robot training centre and a laser welding laboratory. Robot training courses for customers are offered in the company's own modern training centre, focusing on programming, control and maintenance.
‘In the engineering department, we can supply ready-made, customised systems. In the service department, we offer all-round service for robots ’, says Managing Director Peter Grňo.
Reliable and strong partner for the industry
The customers come from both domestic and international industry; with a focus on the automotive and metalworking sectors.
Blumenbecker Slovakia has successfully implemented many projects over the past 22 years. One of them was the development of a robot welding system for the customer Tatramat. The highly sensitive seams of the hot water tanks are welded fully automatically by robots. The 360° service ranged from extensive testing to maintenance of the robot workstations, including a service hotline and just-in-time delivery of spare parts.
Or the delivery of laser welding robots for the automotive supplier Martinrea. The company was looking for a solution for welding extremely thin stainless steel pipes for fuel lines. At the time, a series of tests were carried out in the welding laboratory in Bratislava to adapt the technology to the rough everyday production conditions.
For the customer Farguell Group, they developed the first robotic cell in the production in Nitra. Farguell specialises in the development and production of metal components for the industrial sector.
‘We have remained down-to-earth,’ Grňo explains, adding proudly, ‘and we are following our course and have developed into a reliable and strong partner for companies from the industry. ’
This is also demonstrated by the latest project: Blumenbecker developed a prototype for bonding U-profiles for new customer PORFIX - pórobetón, a.s. in close cooperation with PORFIX.
