Innovation and product development
Innovation has always been our path to success. Our earliest developments are therefore always geared to market conditions and requirements.
krauth technology supplies durable and high-quality products that nevertheless have innovative features and can be upgraded to meet new requirements. In order to be able to offer these products, we use technologies which are durable but also modern and sophisticated. All our products are characterized by their technical excellence and modern design. We are prepared to invest for this privilege. Our products are designed, produced and constructed along individualized assembly lines with our own construction and design departments. A high standard of technology, coupled with unique design, is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also significantly improves the ergonomics, user-friendliness and durability of our equipment.
Agile development of software modules and applications
All software modules and applications for our devices are developed and implemented customer-specifically at our company headquarters in Eberbach. To achieve this a wide range of technologies are used. From the classic Delphi application over Java and C++ to the latest web technologies.
The dynamic structure of our development process makes it possible to implement customer-specific requirements and changes in one of our four flexible working groups as soon as they come up. With the flexible and lean development process and a close cooperation between project managers, subject matter experts and developers, we are able to work out the optimal solution for the customer fitting their requirements.
Development of electronic components
Our expertly designed and produced electronic components ready for series production are not to be found on the general market. These components are specifically designed for our special applications and can be adapted or extended in-house as required. Important aspects include scalability across all devices, the applicability of the components in particular the extent of temperature range and low intrinsic power dissipation. These properties lead to higher component reliability. For more complex components, we integrate standardized, robust computer-on-module components with industry-standard interfaces. This allows us scalability and ease of spare parts replacement.
3D-CAD development and construction
With the help of the 3D-CAD design system, complex ticket vending machines and fare management systems have been developed in our company. The mechanical development and construction of our modules and terminals is carried out according to market requirements and specifications in close cooperation with the research and development department.
Flexible volume production
From sheet metal processing to plastic injection molding, from electronic assembly to painting and powder coating, from tool and mold production to 3D printing of plastic parts and prototype construction – at our production site in Eberbach, we produce our machines and devices to a production depth that is unparalleled in the industry. And that’s not all. Due to the fact that we have all processes and the manufacture of pre- and semi-finished products in our own hands, we are able to react flexibly and at short notice to customer requests. This flexibility also applies to necessary changes in the production process and above all guarantees the consistent and excellent quality of our products.
At our production facility in Eberbach we are able to produce up to 500 ticket vending machines per year. In addition, we can fall back on the available capacity of our partner companies to fulfill our contracts in the event of a higher vending machine order volume. Our manufacturing competence and depth of in-house production, is another convincing reason for your company to decide in favor of products from krauth technology.
