Production Digitalization Project

23.04.2025

In April 2025, Joint Stock Company SAF Tehnika commenced the implementation of a new investment project aimed at automating manual processes and reducing risks and challenges associated with production post-processing. The project is carried out within the framework of the European Union Recovery and Resilience Facility.

The aimed result of the project is to introduce a comprehensive digital transformation solution for the production of product components. The solution comprises two key elements: a 3D printer with dedicated software and a component post-processing machine with accompanying software.

The deployment of this technology will enable SAF Tehnika to reach the aims of the project:

  • Ensure fully automated production and post-processing in line with the company’s technical requirements and complexity, including automated preparation processes.
  • Provide automated control and monitoring of production and post-processing activities.
  • Establish a convenient, fast, and efficient database for product parameter files with advanced management functionality.
  • Significantly reduce the need for manual labor and direct exposure to chemical substances, as well as risks of human factor in manual labor.

The project is co-financed by the European Union Recovery and Resilience Facility in the amount of EUR 17 000 in accordance with Agreement No. 9.2-17-L-2025/798 concluded between SAF Tehnika and the Investment and Development Agency of Latvia (LIAA).

Further information regarding this support program is available on the LIAA website.

The project is scheduled for completion by September, 2025.
