SAEKI Secures $6.7M to Advance Manufacturing Automation in Switzerland

February 5, 2025

Swiss manufacturing automation firm SAEKI has secured $6.7 million in new funding, bringing its total funding to $8 million. The investment round was led by Lightbird, with participation from Founderful, 2100VC, Danobat, and several business angels.

The company combines large-scale additive manufacturing with CNC machining in an integrated production system. This hybrid approach allows SAEKI to produce industrial components in significantly shorter timeframes compared to traditional manufacturing methods. According to the company, its automated quality assurance system helps maintain compliance with industry standards.

SAEKI has introduced a new digital quoting platform that enables customers to receive immediate pricing for engineered parts after uploading their designs. The system has reduced the procurement process from several days to minutes. A case study with an automotive manufacturer showed that SAEKI’s 3D-printed composite tooling reduced production time from six weeks to one week.

“This isn’t just about making parts; it’s about reshaping the way industries approach production,” said Andrea Perissinotto, co-founder and CEO of SAEKI. “This is a defining moment for European manufacturing as we set out to build a future with fully autonomous factories.”

The funding will support SAEKI’s development of autonomous manufacturing facilities that integrate multiple production processes. Thomas Meier, Partner at Lightbird, noted: “Global supply chains are under pressure, with rising costs and delays becoming the norm. SAEKI’s ability to deliver high-quality components quickly and reliably sets a new standard for the industry.”

The company’s approach aims to address current manufacturing challenges in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and construction. SAEKI’s technology focuses on reducing waste and lead times while supporting efforts to strengthen European manufacturing capabilities.
