Automation company ABB has opened its refitted U.S. robotics headquarters and manufacturing facility in Auburn Hills, Michigan. The expansion will support the development and manufacturing of ABB Robotics’ robotic solutions for markets across the Americas and marks ABB’s third global robotics factory expansion in three years across China, Europe, and the Americas. ABB invested $20 million in the facility's upgrade in March 2023.

The refitted facility features a 30% increase in space, a customer experience center where ABB will showcase hardware and software solutions, and a training center to educate over 3000 workers and students each year. The expanded site will also support ABB Robotics’ specialist centers, including its packaging and logistics hub in Atlanta, life sciences and healthcare hub in Houston, and AI research lab in Silicon Valley.
