Xingyao Yinhai Park, opening a new chapter in the future
As Staubli’s business in China has entered a new stage of development, the opening of the Yinhai Park is close to Staubli Hangzhou Xianglong Park, covering an area of 25,000 square meters, integrating production, research and development, application, sales and customer service, providing a broader space for future expansion. By introducing various intelligent manufacturing systems, Yinhai Park promotes process digitization and improves operational efficiency in production planning, quality monitoring, test platform, logistics and warehousing, etc., and also penetrates Staubli’s century-old international production standards and global quality management mode into the system to ensure the consistency of production quality and quality control. In addition, the new Yinhai Park is equipped with solar panels, which can provide about 600,000 KWH of electricity a year, and intelligent allocation systems are committed to making the park’s own operations carbon neutral.
Localization strategy transition, explore the depth of development
In recent years the Staubli Group has embarked on the Horizon strategy to prepare for a sustainable future. As the focus and linchpin of the Group in this strategy, Staubli Hangzhou will play a key role. The company will comprehensively promote the localization strategy, deeply cultivate local production and innovation, and continue to integrate local innovation while promoting the localization of products, further rooted in China and serving China, and successfully write a new chapter of localization strategy upgrading.
“China is the most important strategic market for Staubli and an important growth engine for us. It is the result of Staubli’s consideration of China’s strategic advantages and business environment factors that the company has once again increased its investment in China and rooted its production and research and development base here. I am delighted to see that with the opening of the new Yinhai Campus, the Hangzhou company is becoming a model for the global localization of the Staubli Group.” — Gerald Vogt, CEO, Staubli Group
