Panasonic Factory Solutions Co. of America has moved from Elgin, IL, to
a dedicated location in Buffalo Grove.
The new facility will house three industrial market units: Welding and Robotics, Electronics Assembly (EAG) and Microelectronics (MEG).
"We're continually growing as an independent industrial division of the Panasonic family," said Tom Gebhardt, president. "This move is most advantageous: the location's proximity to O'Hare and other industrial corporations is far more convenient for customers visiting/training with us. We have expanded our MEG clean room by 60%, and added lab space specifically for metrology and solutions."
The company develops and supports innovative manufacturing processes around the core of welding, robotic, software and circuit manufacturing technologies.
