Andrew Fortus, Prototype Engineer/Robot Integration; Rudy Echnenique, Operations/HR; and Patrick Marshall, Research Engineer, at OnRobot's new Culver City location.
OnRobot, a provider of end-of-arm tooling for collaborative robot (cobot) applications, has opened its first location specifically dedicated to research and development (R&D) in the U.S. Based in Culver City in Los Angeles, CA, the new office area features 6,000 sq. ft. for engineers, researchers and local staff to work and develop new products. Last year marked OnRobot's first foray into the LA area, as it acquired Perception Robotics.
"As OnRobot continues its aggressive expansion throughout North America, moving to a larger location in Culver City offers multiple benefits," said Enrico Krog Iversen, CEO of OnRobot. "It has space for our current staff of 17, with plenty of room for the research team to use multiple types of collaborative robot arms in our quest to develop new tools for these. It is also directly across the street from a multi-million dollar entertainment industry hub that is currently being built, called Ivy Station. The new building will be home to HBO, Apple and Amazon, bringing to Culver City a more qualified pool of candidates for us to choose from when we look at increasing our staff next year. We are excited to be here and are looking forward to all the great things we are going to accomplish in this region."
The new location is conveniently located next to the Culver City light rail stop, tucked between Santa Monica and downtown Los Angeles near the 405 and 10 freeway intersection. The new OnRobot office is also close to the LAX Airport.
OnRobot provides cobots with end-of-arm-tooling such as grippers, tool changers and force/torque sensors that are used with cobots and light industrial robots from a variety of robot manufacturers. OnRobot works with all major cobot brands at the new Culver City office, with plans to add more as the California location grows.
