About WGT-Elektronik
WGT-Elektronik is a supplier and development company based in Kolsass in Tyrol, specialising in custom electromechanical solutions. The company implements electronic and electrotechnical tasks for customers for which no suitable industrial standard solution exists. Its range of services includes circuit design, PCB layout, firmware and programming work, prototype construction, printed circuit board manufacturing, metrology, device assembly and winding technology – individually or as complete development and production from a single source. Having grown historically out of the manufacture of instrument transformers, chokes and harmonic filters for converter drives, WGT-Elektronik today serves industries such as medical device development for analytical purposes, the electrical industry, as well as research and life sciences. Customers include Oroboros Instruments, Frey Sound Control, Oxia and Detalo. Since 2019, the quality management system has been certified to ISO 13485 for the development, production, service and repair of electromechanical devices for manufacturers of medical devices for analytical purposes.
