What Fitech does

Fitech is a privately held Polish engineering firm founded in 1996 that designs and delivers industrial automation, robotics, and AI-based quality assurance solutions for Tier 1 manufacturers across electronics, industrial, medical, automotive, and lighting sectors. The company employs 350 engineers across two main sites — its registered headquarters and prototyping/assembly facility in Sucha Beskidzka and its engineering center in Kraków — and operates dedicated project teams that deliver custom automation lines, modular workstations, AI-driven optical inspection, and functional/EMS test systems. Core product lines include AI-based Robotics and AI-based Quality Assurance (computer vision for defect detection), Manufacturing Process Automation (assembly, soldering, packaging, dispensing, screwing, silicone application, marking, testing, depanelization), Automated Assembly Lines, Functional and EMS Testers, and Software Development services delivered through its wholly-owned subsidiary Fitech Software Sp. z o.o.

Fitech monetizes primarily through one-time project-based contracts for custom automation and AI-quality systems, complemented by professional services revenue from its software subsidiary and distribution margins on Dobot collaborative robots where it serves as an authorized European partner. The company has invested in AI since 2015, developed its first IoT device in 2018, and in 2019 launched the University of Robots project — an EU co-financed €25 million initiative in Kraków aimed at deploying 300+ specialists on AI for intelligent manufacturing automation. Its go-to-market is enterprise field sales direct to named Tier 1 customers including BorgWarner, Philips, Bosch, Woodward, ASM, NIDEC, and Signify, with marketing supported through LinkedIn, YouTube, and EU project publications. The company is founder-led with no disclosed external funding, no parent company, and operates primarily in Europe (Poland).
