What AMTEK does

AMTEK, spol. s r.o. is a Czech value-added distributor and engineering company headquartered in Brno (with a sales branch in Prague) that has operated for over 30 years in industrial electrical engineering, electronics, and automation. The company distributes more than 30,000 products from authorized global manufacturers across eight categories: industrial automation (PLCs, motion controllers, servo drives), industrial sensors and machine vision, power supply technology, embedded PCs and network infrastructure, Auto ID, workplace safety, controls and indicators, and aluminum profile systems. Its vendor portfolio includes Fuji Electric (34+ year relationship), Traco Power, EAO, Bihl+Wiedemann, Datasensing, Datalogic, Tapeswitch, Teltonika Networks, TDK-Lambda, Unitronics, AMKmotion, and MayTec, the last under a mutual strategic partnership supporting custom machine construction using the free MayCAD 3D design tool.

The company differentiates through a sales-led, consultative GTM that provides free pre-sales requirement analysis, solution design and visualization, installation, operator training, and warranty/post-warranty service, delivered by product managers, application engineers, and regional sales representatives covering South Moravia, Northern Moravia, the Bohemia region, and Slovakia. Revenue is generated from two streams: hardware distribution across the 30,000+ SKU catalog and custom project delivery (conveyors, safety fencing, automation nodes, single-purpose machines) using MayTec aluminum profile systems. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. AMTEK serves three primary use-case segments: manufacturing and industrial production, transportation and mobility (including rail), and IoT/digital infrastructure deployments, primarily in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Poland. Recent strategic activity includes launches of the MayCOBOT collaborative robot, MayLIGHT intelligent LED system, and MayBOARD composite material (January 2026), and the TDK-Lambda DUSH960 DC-UPS (August 2025). The company is privately held with no external institutional investment disclosed.
