Over 60 % increase in production efficiency – Konrad Technologies at Enforce Tac 2026

From 23 to 25 February, the company will be demonstrating in Nuremberg how proven testing and automation solutions from industrial series production can be successfully transferred to the defence industry.
The current security policy environment presents an enormous opportunity for the defence industry. At the same time, however, it also poses challenges for OEMs and suppliers: complex and mission-critical systems must be produced faster and more efficiently, while meeting the highest standards.
This is where Konrad Technologies comes in. The Radolfzell-based company specialises in the development, design and integration of tailor-made testing and manufacturing solutions. These are used in the automotive, aerospace, medical and consumer electronics industries, among others.
“The incredible momentum in the defence sector is forcing companies to rethink their production processes,” explains Michael Konrad, CEO of Konrad Technologies. “Here, a great deal of expertise can be gained from high-volume industries, where efficiency, scalability and reproducibility are key.”
At Enforce Tac 2026, Konrad Technologies will present its complete range of services for the defence industry. This includes the LEONBench universal test system, which can be used to test a wide variety of electronic assemblies on a single platform using various test procedures. This significantly reduces development costs, changeover times, and time and expense. Using the example of an intelligent camera lens assembly, the company also clearly demonstrates how customer-specific automation and manufacturing solutions for highly sensitive applications with the highest quality and reliability requirements can be implemented. The portfolio is complemented by comprehensive support and services designed to ensure the long-term reliable operation of existing systems and the efficient development of new capacities.
Looking ahead to the trade show, Laurent Chatard, Global Key Account Manager at Konrad Technologies, comments: “Under the motto ‘Test Faster. Build Smarter’, we want to show that there is often untapped potential in the production lines of the defence industry. With our industry-proven solutions, we have already achieved efficiency gains of 66 % – a measurable contribution to ensuring the availability and operational readiness of safety-critical systems.”
