Uchi Technologies Berhad
Uchi Technologies Berhad (MYX: 7100) was incorporated on 18 February 1998 in Malaysia. The Group's principal activities are the design, research, development and manufacture of miniature data terminals, fuzzy logic controllers, controlled modules for precision weighing scale, dynamic sound improvement processor, PCB assembly, timer, printer, computing scales and industrial controllers.
Uchi is the largest producer of coffee modules in the world. These coffee modules are the control centres of coffee machines. The manufacture of coffee maker modules account for 80% of profits. Uchi makes control modules for almost all the major coffee makers like Jura (Swiss), Krups (German), AEG (German), Bosch (German), Siemens (German) and Nestle (Swiss). Uchi is confident that the outsourcing trend will increase as it is more cost effective for the coffee makers to concentrate on design and branding while outsourcing the coffee modules to Uchi. Uchi controls the intellectual properties of key technologies.
Other activities include assembly of electrical components onto printed circuit boards (PCB) and trading of complete electrical module and saturated paper for PCB lamination.
