Technology & Products
Key Products
Precision machined components (aluminum, plastics, brass, copper, steels, titanium); Additive manufacturing services (metal and polymer 3D printing); Electronics subcontracting (PCB assemblies, industrial electronics); Prototypes, assembly, and testing; Equipment assembly and cable harnesses
Technological Advantage
Investment in advanced AM equipment like the miniFactory Ultra 3D printer for ultra-polymers (2020) and dedicated AM development leadership (Dr. Jukka Pakkanen) to enhance capabilities. ISO 9001:2015 certification ensures quality standards.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Offers comprehensive manufacturing from design to finished products, combining traditional CNC machining with additive manufacturing to enable flexible production, reduce lead times for prototypes and small series, and integrate 3D-printed components into conventional workflows.
How They Differentiate
Unlike pure-play AM service bureaus, SME Elektro Group offers integrated mechanical and electronics subcontracting with in-house CNC machining, allowing for combined additive and subtractive manufacturing in one workflow. This reduces outsourcing steps and provides single-source accountability for complex assemblies.
Market & Competition
