Many of our projects begin with a problem, not a drawing. We understand the technical challenge, develop a workable concept, and turn it into a reliable, manufacturable product — with the trade-offs made explicit.
How KOVACO designed the world's first fully electric skid-steer loader — from a blank sheet in 2016 to a machine the industry caught up with years later.
A fully electric, remotely operated mini loader just 790 mm wide — real loader power that fits through a standard interior door.
Doubling a positioner range's payload to 10,000 kg — inside a 25 mm plate limit and a compact pantograph footprint.
From a dealer's phone call to a working attachment demonstrated at a trade fair — in three weeks.
Every machine starts as a complete 3D model: load-bearing structure, kinematics and drives designed as one system, strength and performance calculated before anything is cut.
Laser and plasma cutting of every plate and profile in our own hall, from the same model the machine was designed in.
CNC machining of the slewing rings, shafts, mounts and fits that decide how precisely a positioner turns or an attachment locks on.
Certified welding, then hydraulics, drives and electrics assembled by the people who answer for the machine afterwards.
New designs are proven in our prototype and test workshop; every machine leaves with complete, controlled technical documentation.
We treat technical know-how and commercially sensitive information as confidential by default.

The same pre-production workflow we used for our own machines, applied to your project.
Every KOVACO machine goes through the same five steps under one roof in Veľká Lehota. Design, Cutting, Machining, Welding and assembly, Testing and documentation
Project outputs and documentation belong to the client. We treat technical know-how and commercially sensitive information as confidential by default.
