It all began in a garage in Berlin-Zehlendorf back in 1987. With the ideas and inventive talents of our staff, their flexibility and reliability in solving problems and their consistent customer-orientated concept, we are now the world's most demanded partner in the electronics and components industries.
OTB serves customers in the surface treatment sector in Europe, China,
Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia.
OTB both develops and produces innovative automatic systems for surface treatment processes as well as providings services in selective line plating of metal carrier strips and plastic foils (reel-to-reel technology). OTB merges development engineering know-how with user experience.
To pass on these benefits to its customers, OTB has an above-average number of qualified academics on its staff in comparison to other suppliers in this sector. This means that our experience in reel-to-reel technology and innovative developments in other technical fields is able to mature into new surface treatment processes - with the aims of reducing costs, increasing productivity and optimizing processes.
Whatever demands the surface treatment technology market places on our customers today and tomorrow, we are there to assist them with the latest developments and solutions. |
Significant results of applying our know-how up to now are:
|
|
|
Patented economical selective plating systems for high-precision plating of flat and 3-dimensional carrier strips and of the inner surfaces of female connectors
|
|
|
Patented processes for the recovery of precious metals from punching waste and electronics scrap
