About mta robotics
mta robotics is a Swiss company for automated soldering and dispensing systems with origins in the Swiss watchmaking industry around 60 years ago. Since the mid-1980s, the company has developed and manufactured soldering robots as well as complementary systems for volumetric dispensing. The product portfolio includes standalone soldering heads and dispensing heads, components, manual systems, semi-automated benchtop robots through to fully automated production cells, as well as a broad range of spare parts. In the field of dispensing, volumetric technologies such as piston pumps and eccentric screw pumps are used, which control volume and flow rate numerically. Materials processed include 1K and 2K silicones, 2K epoxy and 2K adhesives for applications such as bonding, sealing, potting and conformal coating. Typical industries are automotive, electronics, sensor technology, cable and connector technology as well as medical technology. In-house laboratories with specialized engineers offer process validation and proof of process for custom applications.

Quality & Process Validation
Specialized engineers carry out in-depth tests in their own laboratories and develop the appropriate soldering or dispensing method for each application. The result is a process validation that is handed over to the customer as a proof of process.
