training-qualifications

quilThe Manufacturing, Engineering and Related Services SETA was established in terms of the Skills Development Act passed by the South African Parliament in 1998. The MerSETA was set up initially to facilitate skills development, education and training in amongst others, the metal and engineering, auto manufacturing and motor retail and component manufacturing.

Lektratek is a proudly MerSeta accredited facility and many employees have already improved their skills and qualifications by being part of this opportunity.

All employees are always encouraged to improve their expertise by using training opportunities. Therefore the entire workforce at the company are uniquely skilled for the work they do.

Training worth R400 000 was done in 2015 only.

 

 

anodizing

anodizingThis is an electrolytic plating process used to increase the thickness of the natural oxide layer on the surface of metal parts. Anodizing increases resistance to corrosion and wear, and also provides better adhesion for paint primers and glues than does bare metal.

Not only is this process done at Lektratek, but it is also prepared according to military standards and uniquely fully mechanised. Furthermore every single component will be exactly the same as all the others. Not something that a large factory like this can boast about. Weekly analyses are done to make sure that no mistakes ever occurs.

Type III anodizing is also done at Lektratek and players in this field will know that this is a very unique process and hardly done by any other company if this size and nature.
