Delvitech, a Swiss developer of AI-native Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) solutions for electronics, has announced the establishment of a new manufacturing and technology facility in Bengaluru, with an initial investment of $10 million and an overall investment of USD 25-30 million. Spread across 65,000 sq ft, the facility is planned to become operational in Q1 CY2027, marking a long-term commitment to the Indian market.

The facility is expected to create 500-800 jobs over the next five years, while developing specialised manufacturing, engineering and technical skills based on Delvitech’s Swiss engineering standards.

Delvitech also strengthened its India presence by showcasing its latest inspection solutions, including Horus, Aton and Horus Dual Lane, at productronica India 2026 in Bengaluru. The company demonstrated how physical AI can transform inspection to improve cost, time and sustainability.

Roberto Gatti, Founder and CEO, Delvitech SA, said, “India is one of our priority markets; and the country has leapfrogged in its manufacturing capabilities over the last few years, with electronics now being at the centre of that growth story. We see enormous potential here; not just as a manufacturing base, but increasingly as a hub for R&D and innovation. Our customers here didn't ask us to be present; they asked us to be close. Bangalore is that answer.”

Vasanth Kumar, Head of Asia Operations, Delvitech, added, “India is fast becoming a global centre of electronics manufacturing and innovation. Our decision to establish manufacturing capabilities here reflects our confidence in that growth. The new facility brings together in-house precision machining, metrology and equipment integration under one roof, allowing us to control quality and tolerances at every stage, shorten lead times, and localise engineering support for our customers. We are investing in India for the long term, building a facility that goes beyond assembly to deliver real manufacturing, technology and customer value locally.”

At the new plant, critical components will undergo inspection using in-house Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) and metrology equipment to ensure accuracy, repeatability and compliance. The facility will integrate mechanical, electrical, optical, software and control systems, supported by engineering and R&D for localisation and continuous improvement. It will also serve as a support centre, with a dedicated demonstration area where customers can trial and evaluate machines locally.

As Indian OEMs and EMS companies scale production and adopt higher levels of automation and traceability, Delvitech sees the facility as an opportunity to bring its inspection solutions closer to customers.
