-It is a pleasure to work together with such a meaningful industry.
-What drives us is the success of carpenters and building industry.

As we face the future, emerging from one of humanities biggest crisis yet, we need to think carefully about our next step. How do we handle our production chains, what if our employees get sick? How do we manage our work sites and factories to keep the virus from spreading? Can automation help us keep the distance and production capacity?

2020 here we come! but first a summary of what happened in 2019!

2019 Summary

We have closed 2019 and we thank all our customers and partners for a fantastic year. 2019 was a great and challenging year we made several installations globally from our entire product portfolio. We sold our first CAD/CAM-controlled wall production line to Latin America and sold several ZeroLabor Robotic Systems whereof one to a low-cost country. The 10th AutoEye contract was signed. All this combined we look forward to 2020 and foresee the growing demand with great confidence.

Great article in the magazine Manufacturing Today!
Randek chairman Johan Larsholm; “The prefabricated home manufacturing sector is very buoyant and as demands for prefabrication grows, so does demand for automation equipment”

Randek together with our agent Bliss & Reels were awarded "Excellence in Innovation" in Australia.
The Swedish Australian Chamber of Commerce annually award Swedish business achievements in Australia.

Randek AB moves into a new production and development facility. The new plant will strongly increase the capacity. The plant is located in Falkenberg Sweden.

Randek launched a newly developed C-frame for the roof truss presses over 10 years ago and despite high sales volumes 0% complaints has been made. C-frames are exposed to very high loads during pressing and this can, over time, lead to crack formations in the C-frame. Randek well tested C-frames do not have this problem! The C-frame is used for all Randek presses 23-35 tons.

The AutoEyeTruss System was awarded the highlight of the Ligna exhibition
Each Ligna exhibition the Deutsche Messe awards the highlights of the exhibition in terms of most innovative and groundbreaking product/system. Over 300 companies applied this year and the AutoEyeTruss System, together with 5 other companies, was awarded the highlight of Ligna.

The worlds most efficient roof truss plant is inaugurated, Randek delivered the automation equipment.
Randek AutoEyeTruss system is now installed at customer PreTre in Norway. The customer will run in 2 shifts and produce approx 126 000 roof trusses annually with 3 operators.

Randek receives a significant order from Skanska IPN
Skanska IPN makes yet another investment for prefabricated house manufacturing. Also this time the supplier will be Randek after reviewing the market closely.
