Japanese Yaskawa looking to hire in Europe

As previously reported the company is planning to expand its production capacities and open a new robot manufacturing plant with a development centre in Slovenia. The first Yaskawa Motoman robots from the all-European production are expected to roll off the production line in 2018, the company states in a press release. The factory should satisfy about 80% of the European demand for robots. Total investments are estimated to be in the order of EUR 25 million.
