We had been considering the purchase of a laser welding machine for some time. We were looking for a solution that would suit our type of production and that we could fully utilize in our daily operations. We compared several options, but FANTECH offered the best overall balance between purchase price, technical solution, and after-sales support. Water cooling was also important to us, as we use the equipment every day.
From the very beginning, we appreciated that it was not just about a sales offer. We had the opportunity to discuss our specific parts, production processes, and how we intended to use the laser within our company. Thanks to this, even before the
purchase, we were confident that we were investing in a technology that would bring real benefits to our production.
Laser welding very quickly became a standard part of our production process. The equipment is intuitive to operate, and the welding process itself is significantly faster compared to the methods we used previously. We also appreciate the quality of the welds and the cleanliness of the process, which were the main reasons that convinced us to invest in laser technology. Among other applications, we weld thin stainless steel and aluminium components for the energy sector and heat exchanger stations, where heat input and subsequent material distortion are important factors. With the FANTECH laser, the need for subsequent manual weld repairs has been significantly reduced.
Communication and overall cooperation were at a very high level from the very beginning. We particularly appreciate the quick response times, open approach, and willingness to find solutions to the specific technical requirements that arose during the project.
We also received positive feedback from our welders. They particularly appreciated Tomáš Nyilfa’s approach during installation and training. The training was not just about learning how to operate the equipment, but above all about gaining practical knowledge and experience in laser welding. We appreciate his technical expertise, willingness to share his know-how, and ability to explain individual procedures clearly and understandably.
We are equally satisfied with our cooperation with sales representative Jiří Rak. Communication was professional, prompt, and transparent, whether regarding technical information, commercial terms, or the overall implementation process. Everything proceeded as agreed, without unnecessary delays, which is always a major advantage when introducing new technology into
production.
Before making our final decision, we conducted our own market research and contacted several suppliers of laser welding technology. During the selection process, we compared the technical capabilities of the individual solutions, their suitability for our production, and the overall value they offered. After evaluating all the information, FANTECH emerged as the most suitable partner. The subsequent technology demonstration and personal meeting confirmed our decision.
Aptec was founded with the aim of delivering high-quality heat transfer solutions. To this day, we design, supply, and service plate heat exchangers as well as complete heat exchanger stations for industry, the energy sector, and building services.
Over time, we saw that our customers were looking for a partner capable of offering more than just a product. That is why we began developing our own engineering and manufacturing capabilities. From our original focus on heat exchangers, we have gradually grown into a company that combines advanced technologies, extensive experience, and its own production facilities.
We manufacture precision-engineered components, welded structures, and complete assemblies according to customer requirements. From the initial design through the production of individual components, machining, welding, surface treatment, and assembly to the final completed unit ready for use. This allows us to keep the entire process under our own control, while our customers can rely on a single partner from start to finish. Our products are used in technologies operated by companies throughout Europe – Siemens, TATRA TRUCK, Škoda Group, Magna, voestalpine, Stiebel Eltron, and others.
Heat transfer remains an integral part of Aptec. Alongside custom engineering production, we continue to supply Alfa Laval plate heat exchangers, design heat exchanger stations, and provide servicing. Our technologies help support the operation of hospitals (Nemocnice Jihlava, FN Brno), high-rise buildings (Grand Tower Frankfurt, Ares Tower Vienna), spa resorts (Therme Erding), energy facilities (ČEZ Energo), biomass power plants (Biomasse-Heizkraftwerk Elsterwerda), and manufacturing plants (MANN+HUMMEL).
We grow together with our customers. That is why we continuously expand our manufacturing technologies, streamline our processes, and invest in equipment that enables us to deliver even technically demanding projects. It is precisely the combination of our long-standing experience in heat transfer with modern engineering production, advanced
technological facilities, and an individual approach to every project that our customers value most about working with us.
