2003 – 2009

Accquisition of TECA Technologieorientierte Automation GmbH by centrotherm. In addition to the development and production of vacuum soldering systems, the focus was on the development of fully automatic wafer testers.

1991 – 2003

TECA Technologieorientierte Automation GmbH was formed from the Institut für Nachrichtentechnik. The focus was on the development and construction of vacuum soldering systems such as the MCM (Multichip Assembly Machine) as well as automation systems for the semiconductor industry. This is where the founding team of the later budatec GmbH started.
