MOBA board member Holger Bartel, said: “The investment is seen as a positive move by MOBA employees, separating the electronics and mechanical manufacturing. These areas don't always fit well together. The manufacturing of electronics requires areas with the highest cleanliness, while mechanical manufacturing creates dust and dirt through welding.”
