1 Comprehensive processing COMPETENCE

2 Our formula for success = our service performance. + + = QUALITY Success is a result of intelligent and well-focused actions. Such actions include the strict quality controls that we carry out in accordance with the specifications established by our customers. Throughout each phase of their development, all of our end products are subject to standard inspections based on QUAPROTEK guidelines. We apply the latest proactive methods and procedures to continually maintain and enhance the quality of our products. The use of a CAQ system in connection with SPC monitoring is a standard practice at our production facilities. PRODUCTIVITY Optimally harmonized processes ranging from the procurement of casting materials to the selection of mechanical processing methods and the provision of downstream services ensure a high degree of stability and resource conservation in the area of serial production. Always ready to go well beyond the improvement of individual processing steps, our aim is to optimize the entire value chain for all of the products we manufacture. This guarantees cost effectiveness for our customers. TECHNOLOGY Global production concepts and access to local, reliable suppliers enable us to meet the needs of our customers throughout the world. Our facilities are equipped with multi-axis milling machines and various peripheral systems for product cleaning and inspection. All of the products we deliver are manufactured and inspected by QUAPROTEK. This makes us the primary contact for our customers and suppliers. Moreover, our modern supply management system allows us to make our products and services available wherever they are needed around the world.

5 Two decades of competence: our enterprise has a history. We have offered our customers a focused range of services centering on the processing of cast parts for more than 20 years. Based on the strength of our innovative and high-quality products as well as our excellent customer service, we have advanced to the status of an international supplier of automobile parts. We are proud of this worldwide success from which our customers also benefit. The cornerstone for this success was laid in 1992 when QUAPROTEK GmbH was founded as a technology consulting company. Only three years later, the company established its first production facility QUAP- ROTEK CZ in the Czech city of Brno. In 1998, QUAPROTEK GmbH relocated its headquarters to Welzheim, Germany. Ten years later, Facility 2 was opened and the facility in Brno was expanded. Around 200 workers have been employed at the 4,000-square-meter Brno facility since In 2011, QUAPROTEK GmbH launched its business activities in the United States and celebrated the grand opening of its new 6,000-square-meter and eminently expandable U.S.-based facility in June of Opening of Facility 2 in Welzheim, Germany; relocation of sales and assembly units Completion of the new QUAPROTEK CZ facility Launching of business activities in USA Festive opening of the new U.S.-based facility

7 The prerequisite for success: precision planning. The heat is on when the aluminum is cast into form. Perfect and inspected quality.

8 The diverse qualifications of our employees ensure first-rate product quality. Process inspection procedures ensure adherence to defined product and process specifications. Production efficiency at the highest level: casting with multi-spindle machines.

9 Precision work: We process your aluminum castings to perfection. Many steps are completed as we move from an idea to a finished part. The years of experience we have gathered in the context of completing numerous projects flows into the production of each new part. The success of your enterprise depends on excellent services. That s why we don t leave anything to chance: we work out and evaluate all of the details as early as the development phase. Our production facilities feature high-speed CNC machining centers for 4 and 5-axis processing at a constant control voltage as well as the semi- and fully automatic linking of auxiliary machines and cleaning and inspection systems. Customized and highperformance tools for mechanical processing help to create stable manufacturing results. However, amid all of this technology, the human factor remains essential. This can be seen in the importance of monitoring and controlling processes and responding to performance data in real time when it comes to securing the production process. Efficient work-time models, global supply chains, consignment warehouses and onschedule deliveries round off our services. Our aim is an optimal configuration of the entire production process. Analysis: we understand your requirements and offer fast and efficient solutions. Planning: all links in the value chain are optimally conceived and aligned to one another. Organization: you retain process control from the moment of placing an order to the moment of product inspection. Realization: we complete your projects on time, at the right price and in the best quality. Optimization: continuous process optimization increases productivity and quality.

10 Serial perfection: our task is to meet your specifications. Optimal casting and production procedures are the basis for optimal and efficient solutions for all industrial applications.
