Swoboda is counting on Wittmann Maximum Efficiency for Metal-Plastic Composite Components

With an area of approximately 200 square meters, the production cell is one of the largest and most complex at the Swoboda site in Jihlava. Several million control cabinet housing components are produced on this line each year. What sets this line apart is its high degree of automation. 

We are at Swoboda CZ in Jihlava, Czech Republic, 120 kilometers southeast of Prague. The facility, which is part of the global Swoboda Group, specializes in sophisticated metal-plastic composite assemblies, as Václav Dostal, Managing Director of Swoboda CZ s.r.o., explains to us. While control cabinet housing components are not a new product for the on-site team, the production process has undergone a complete transformation. “Cost pressure has increased dramatically,” says Dostal. “That’s why we decided to invest in a new, fully automated production cell.”
