About BeRoTek
BeRoTek GmbH was founded in 1995 in Ingolstadt by managing director Roland Krenn and specializes in SMD machine technology. The company buys and sells used and new accessories and spare parts for Siemens/ASM SIPLACE placement machines as well as stencil printers, reflow ovens, AOI systems and board handling systems from manufacturers such as DEK, EKRA, ASYS, TWS and Kohyoung. Refurbished machines are inspected in the company's own specialized workshop according to a 105-point check to ASM standard, fitted with new wear parts, repainted and given new Makrolon covers, and undergo test runs and measurement; since 2023, a warranty of up to three years is available on request. The portfolio also includes on-site service and commissioning, feeder and placement head repairs, training (SIPLACE Pro), SMD relocations, production line planning, leasing/financing and machine insurance with partner Allianz. The headquarters in Ingolstadt covers approx. 3000 m² with warehouse and SIPLACE commissioning; a second plant of approx. 1500 m² is used for storing ASYS, DEK, EKRA and SIPLACE tables as well as refurbishing the corresponding equipment. BeRoTek is an official distributor of Siemens AG for the MS72N to SP-120 series and supplies customers worldwide by freight forwarding, air and sea freight.
