Partnership with specialist machine builders Tegan Innovations Ltd

This post originally appeared on sewtec.co.uk. Sewtec is now part of AIR.
Sewtec partners with Tegan Innovations Ltd

Sewtec Automation has formed a partnership with Tegan Innovations Ltd located in Waterford, Southern Ireland, to support its worldwide offering of bespoke automated solutions.

Established in 1994, Tegan Innovations’ core activity includes the design and building of innovative bespoke machines predominantly, but not exclusively, for the medical device industry. Their team of engineers are highly skilled and experienced in mechanical, electrical, and software design, all the skills that are required to design, build, and install highly advanced equipment. This, coupled with their advanced highly capable machine shop, allows them to manufacture complex parts in hours, rather than weeks. The overall result is that Tegan Innovations are able to provide excellent support to customers.

This new partnership with Sewtec Automation aims to offer customers an added level of assurance of the expertise and quality that our systems deliver within the marketplace. It also adds an extra level of support during a time when travel restrictions are affecting companies across the world. Tegan Innovations will be offering a support base in Ireland for our customers, with Sewtec offering support in the UK.

Commenting on the new partnership, Paul Walsh, Principal Design Engineer of Tegan Innovations said, “This is an exciting new venture for Tegan Innovations, and we look forward to working closely with Sewtec Automation with the aim of providing engineering support that their customers require in the Irish market during these challenging times.”

Andy Perks, Head of Sales at Sewtec, also commented on working with Tegan Innovations, saying “I have personally known Paul and his team for a number of years, and I am confident in his knowledge of the industry and quality of work. The partnership will further boost our continued growth strategy plan and complement Sewtec’s range of special purpose machinery.”
