The motion control specialist Aerotech is significantly expanding its capacities at the Fürth site (Germany). In addition to setting up a state-of-the-art laser laboratory, control components will also be assembled there in future. With this expansion, the company is responding to the increasing global demand for its high-precision positioning and automation solutions and at the same time strengthening its delivery capability in Europe.

The first stage of expansion will focus on the assembly and testing of servo drives and motion controllers from the XA4 series. The additional capacities are intended to create more flexibility in production and help to stabilize supply chains and further increase product availability on the European markets.

"With the expansion of our site in Fürth (Germany), we are making targeted investments in growth, customer proximity and operational flexibility," explains David Holmes, COO of Aerotech Inc. "By assembling the actuators locally, we can respond more quickly to the market and increase production without compromising our high quality standards."

The building in Fürth was already designed in 2016 to support future growth. The current initiative is therefore part of Aerotech's long-term investment strategy to systematically develop and strengthen the European site.

Laser Laboratory As A European Competence Center

At the same time as expanding its assembly capacities, Aerotech is putting a new laser laboratory for laser material processing applications into operation. In order to not only design processes theoretically, but also to verify them in interaction with real systems, Aerotech has created the right environment in Fürth, making cooperation with customers and interested parties considerably easier. Customers from all over Europe will have the opportunity to test and optimize laser-based manufacturing processes under realistic conditions and develop them further together with Aerotech. In the long term, the laboratory will serve as a European competence center for micro and precision material processing.
