Tajmac-ZPS

What Tajmac-ZPS does

Tajmac-ZPS, a.s. is a Czech engineering company headquartered in Zlín-Malenovice with over 120 years of operating history, organized as part of the TAJMAC Group (Skupina TAJMAC). It designs, manufactures, and sells high-performance CNC machine tools across three divisions: ZPS machining centres (vertical MCV, horizontal MCH, gantry-type MCG, and multifunctional multiaxis MCG series), MORI-SAY multispindle automatic lathes (cam-controlled AC series and fully CNC-controlled TM/TMZ series), and MANURHIN K'MX Swiss-type sliding-headstock lathes acquired from France in 2004 with production relocated to Zlín. The company operates an in-house foundry (ZPS – SLÉVÁRNA) at the same site, enabling full vertical integration from casting design and mold production through machining to final assembly. The ReCON software platform extends the installed base with Industry 4.0 functionality, providing OPC UA-based machine data extraction (ReCON CONNECT), production monitoring and MES (ReCON MES), workshop planning (ReCON APS), preventive maintenance (ReCON CMMS), reporting and OEE/KPI (ReCON REP), tool management (ReCON JOB), ESG reporting (ReCON ESG), in-process measurement (ReCON SQC), and tool wear monitoring (ReCON TWM); ReCON solutions are sold either as a one-time local-cloud license or as an annual MS Azure subscription.

Revenue is generated primarily through direct enterprise field sales of CNC hardware to industrial manufacturers in four verticals — general manufacturing and engineering, automotive, plastics and pressing, and aerospace and energy — supported by international sales representatives, the annual Customer Days open-house event (1,300+ visitors and 112 exhibitions in 2026), and trade fair participation (e.g., MSV Brno, where the ZPS MCG810i received a Gold Medal in 2005). The Production Cell 4.0 offering bundles a CNC machining centre with B&R Automation, an ABB IRB 4600 robot, OptiSolutions 2D vision, and a belt conveyor into an integrated automation solution for small-batch production at mass-production economics. The company is privately held, with no public ticker, no disclosed funding rounds, and no published revenue figures. Recent strategic activity in 2026 includes the launch of the ReCON SQC module, ongoing expansion of ReCON CONNECT to additional CNC control systems, and academic collaboration with Brno University of Technology on cybersecurity risk research aligned to EU NIS2 and the Cyber Resilience Act.
