TT Gaskets is proud to announce the official launch of its new Laser Department, powered by a cutting-edge, fully automated laser cutting line, and to mark this milestone, the company is hosting a unique Oktoberfest-themed celebration on October 1st, 2025, at its Tampere headquarters.
This event will bring together industry leaders, customers, partners, and key stakeholders for an evening that fuses technology, tradition, and innovation, and highlights one of the most ambitious automation investments in TT Gaskets’ history.
The newly opened Laser Department is the result of a €3 million investment in a fully automated laser cutting line, with an additional €2 million option reserved for future automation and capacity enhancements.
More than just a machinery upgrade, this transformation redefines TT Gaskets’ production capabilities. By integrating TruLaser 5030 Fiber L76 with an advanced STOPA automated warehouse, the company is building a smart, sustainable, and efficient production environment, reducing manual work, optimizing workflow, and delivering consistent quality at scale.
To celebrate this exciting leap forward, TT Gaskets will host an exclusive Oktoberfest-style launch event on-site in Tampere. The event is by invitation only and promises to be a lively evening featuring:
Delicious food & drinks
Live music & entertainment
Traditional Oktoberfest games
Laser-cutting technology demos & facility tours
“This is a celebration of progress,” says Aleksi Arpiainen, CEO of TT Gaskets. “We’re combining tradition with innovation, and honoring the people and partnerships that made this investment possible.”
A limited number of hotel rooms have been pre-booked for the event. Those interested in attending are encouraged to express their interest early. Attendees will be selected based on relevance and capacity.

This transformation wouldn’t be possible without the deep collaboration between TT Gaskets and its trusted technology partners: TRUMPF, TruTekniikka, and STOPA. Together, they’ve delivered an advanced automation ecosystem that supports TT Gaskets’ long-term growth, sustainability, and customer satisfaction.
“We’re not just automating – we’re revolutionizing how we serve our customers,” says Teemu Sillanpää, Purchasing and Sourcing Manager.
Once fully operational in August 2025, the new laser cutting line will significantly boost production speed, traceability, and sustainability — with less downtime, higher precision, and faster delivery times.
“This system puts us ahead of the curve,” says Teemu Piipponen, Production Manager. “It’s unlike anything else on the market, and it reflects our commitment to shaping the future of laser cutting.”
The launch event is only the beginning. Follow TT Gaskets for ongoing updates as we continue investing in automation, digitalization, and excellence — for our customers, our people, and the future of European manufacturing.
