Nordic PCB Assembly Partner for Automation and Robotics

A Swedish automation and robotics company improved collaboration and delivery performance with Comtec Labs.

· by Kari Rantakoski

Short answer: A Swedish automation and robotics company was looking for an electronics manufacturing partner in the Nordics that could meet strict quality requirements and, just as importantly, communicate transparently and respond fast. Comtec Labs took on PCB assembly and testing for the customer, backed by structured reporting on quality and deliveries and a close working relationship between the two engineering teams. The result was faster feedback loops between design and production and smoother production ramp-ups. On-time delivery has stayed consistently above 98 % throughout the partnership.

Key facts

  • On-time delivery has stayed consistently above 98 %.
  • Strict quality requirements were met with PCB assembly and testing backed by structured reporting.
  • Transparent communication and fast response times were selection criteria, not afterthoughts.
  • Close collaboration shortened feedback loops and smoothed production ramp-ups.

Frequently asked questions

Does Comtec Labs work with customers in Sweden and the rest of the Nordics?

Yes. Vaasa is a bilingual city on Finland's west coast, so Swedish customers work with us in Swedish, Finnish or English, with only a one-hour time difference and a short flight or ferry away.

What does structured reporting mean in practice?

Agreed, recurring reports on quality and delivery performance: yields, test results, open deviations and delivery dates against plan, so the customer sees the status without having to ask.

How do you keep on-time delivery high for automation customers?

By planning production against the customer's forecast, securing long-lead components early, and reporting any risk to a date as soon as it is visible rather than on the due date.

Can you support production ramp-ups for new robotics products?

Yes. We build prototypes and pilot batches on the same processes as series production, so the ramp-up is a volume step rather than a new start, and feedback from each stage goes straight back to the design team.
