BANGALORE – A new Kurtz Ersa subsidiary here houses an equipped demo center with soldering systems and provides technology training and short-term realization of production lines.
Kurtz Ersa India – Smart Production Technologies Private Ltd. is the tenth international subsidiary of the company.
“We are very pleased to celebrate the opening of the Indian subsidiary in the year of Ersa GmbH´s 100th anniversary,” said Rainer Krauss, global sales manager and CEO, Kurtz Ersa India. “This reflects the importance of India in our global expansion plans and marks a new chapter in the partnership between German technology and Indian entrepreneurship, which we hope to support through this new venture.
“For almost 35 years now, Kurtz Ersa has been effectively represented on the Indian subcontinent by its partner Bergen Associates. More than 150 employees are spread across the country to efficiently support Indian electronics manufacturing. Forecasts predict high double-digit growth for the Indian market and electronics manufacturing in the coming years. The same applies to PCB assembly, which, according to one study, will be worth $87 billion by 2025 (currently $16 billion). With process-efficient Ersa soldering solutions based on excellent thermal performance, highest machine availability and low operating costs, customers have the best prerequisites to sustainably leverage this potential in India in the coming years.”
