About
Vectra Engineering a.s.
Vectra Engineering a.s. is another step
towards strengthening Vectra Group’s
presence and position in the engineering and
manufacturing industry worldwide.
Taking forward the success story of Vectra
Skid Steer Loader HEMAN – 175 in India, the
company decided to start manufacturing these
machines in Europe to cater to the western
market.
Vectra Engineering a.s. is setting up a
manufacturing facility for SSL in Koprivnice,
Czech Republic. The project is ambitious and
will start with HEMAN -175, a 750 kg SAE
capacity SSL.
The location, Koprivnice in Czech Republic
was an ideal choice for the facilities as it
can offer and strategic location for
logistics in Europe and also, Vectra Group
has long association and presence in Czech
and Slovak area with other existing
businesses and investments.
The corporate office of Vectra Engineering
a.s. is being developed in Hukvaldy.
The company plans to extend the range
further by adding tracked machines and 900
kg and 1100 kg SAE capacity SSLs in near
future.
An advanced design centre is also planned in
the facility.
Heman – 175, the first product to be rolled
out by Vectra Engineering a.s., is known for
its power and speed. It is powered by the
latest Cummins B 3.3 engine, available both
in NA and TC versions. The machine has
higher specifications than any other
competing models, and is also rugged and
reliable. It has proven itself in the
extensive and long trials of the Indian
Army, where none of the other competing
models could survive the tough requirements.
The company has started setting up an
assembly line in Pribor, which will be
utilized till the factory construction is
complete in Koprivnice. The first SSL Heman
-175 will be rolling out in September 2008
from Pribor. The company has plans of
producing 500 units in 2009 and take it
further up to 2000 units by the year 2011.
