Fruitcore expands production
Horst robot needs more space
Fruitcore is expanding its production capacities for the Horst line of industrial robots. The Constance-based robot manufacturer opened a new site in Villingen-Schwenningen at the beginning of July.
In order to meet the growing interest in its industrial robots, Fruitcore is opening a production site in Villingen-Schwenningen. The robot experts are thus expanding their production area by 1,000 square meters. Several hundred eyries per year can see the light of day here. Thanks to modern communication options, the new site is well networked with the headquarters in Constance, where the development department, parts of production and the central departments remain. This guarantees smooth processes.
"The premises in the Villingen Technology Park offer ideal conditions for the series production of our industrial robots," explains Johannes Füßl, Production Manager at Fruitcore. "And should it become necessary, we can immediately expand by a further 700 square meters." Fruitcore remains on course for growth: seven employees are currently working at the new site, and this figure is set to rise to 20 within a year. as
