RBR50 Robotics Innovation Awardsobotics Business ReviewHarmonic Drive, a leading producer of servo actuators, gearheads and gear components, opened a newly constructed, purpose-built headquarters and manufacturing facility in Beverly, Mass., in January 2020. Approximately two-thirds of the 97,000 sq. ft. facility is dedicated to manufacturing. The space is also optimized for gear production and parts fl ow. This includes flooring specifically engineered for the heavy equipment and specialized machinery used to manufacture high-precision gears. The site also includes clean rooms, test labs, assembly rooms, a painting chamber, and more.

The new Harmonic Drive facility more than doubles the square footage of the location it replaced. Company representatives have stated that the new plant will allow it to increase its manufacturing capacity by several hundred percent, partially in anticipation of strong robotics sector growth. They also noted that the state-of-the-art site will allow Harmonic Drive to manufacture more e ciently, and thereby increase production capacity and lower overall costs. The state-ofthe- art facilities will also enable the company’s R&D engineering team to design, test, and deliver prototypes and products faster for both standard and custom-engineered systems. -Dan Kara
