Kurtz Ersa India with a strong presence at Productronica in Bangalore Kurtz Ersa India

“Anyone who buys from Kurtz Ersa India talks directly to the manufacturer - and benefits from process expertise, support and spare parts at manufacturer conditions,” explained Rainer Krauss, Ersa General Sales Manager and Managing Director of Kurtz Ersa India. He adds: “Buying a machine is a 15 to 20-year commitment. That´s when it´s best to do business with the manufacturer.”

Medium-sized EMS companies are proving to be the growth drivers in India: Many companies with several SMT and THT lines are already planning to expand their production capacities with a view to 2026. While low-cost suppliers often choose simple electronics without traceability, quality-oriented medium-sized companies rely on digitization, traceability and systems from market leaders such as Ersa. Since 2018, Kurtz Ersa India has consistently pursued the strategy of first building up service and process knowledge locally and then strengthening sales. Since fall 2025, 22 employees have been available for the whole of India - supplemented by service hubs in Delhi, Hyderabad, Chennai and Pune.

One highlight is the “Tiger Edition” of the VERSAFLOW ONE X series, which was specially developed for India and combines flexibility with high throughput. The portfolio is rounded off by the HOTFLOW series, the POWERFLOW ULTRA for industrial wave soldering processes and high-performance rework solutions. Ersa can also report an increase in its market presence in the field of hand soldering. Overall, Kurtz Ersa India is systematically expanding its role as an important player in the Indian electronics market with continuous growth, quality and customer proximity.
