Company History:

Flexitech Avia specializes in the development and manufacture of metal and ceramic core PCBs and heating elements using Thick film technology, for a wide range of applications. The company’s vast expertise includes complex processes that require custom-made solutions, using advanced technology and diverse materials.

Flexitech was founded in 1999 by Leonid and Tamara Kleiner, as an innovative developer and manufacturer of heating elements and printed circuits using Thick Film technology. The company has a research and development department, clean room, advanced printing equipment and a BTU furnace with a 25-inch belt width. Through its research and development – and the resulting patent-protected inventions – the company has grown to its current production capacity of some 600 square meters printed monthly.

We are constantly working to develop new products and find creative heating solutions for our customers. Our engineering team is waiting for the next challenge. If you have a technological problem and cannot find the solution, look no further.

In 2015, a new investor brought further expansion to the company, enabling it to increase its technological capabilities and its ability to meet a higher operating power than ever before.

Thick-film processes, based on special kinds of printing, photolithographic, selective metallization, multilayer coatings, etching and brazing.

Technology Benefits:

Precision:Save on lengthy iterations, therefore allow relatively small

production batches.

Repeatability: Repeatable results therefore high production yields.

Flexibility:Widest range of different product applications can be

manufactured by the same production line.
