Kudos to FANUC America Corporation for the grand opening of its new West Campus in Auburn Hills, Mich. It said the facility expands its total footprint in Michigan to more than 2 million sq. ft. (185,806 sq. m) and is part of its strategic investment to advance industrial automation in North America. We look forward to visiting sometime soon. https://lnkd.in/ghq_tVtt #robotics #manufacturing
