Growth Drives Relocation

Since 2001, Yaskawa has experienced tremendous growth within its value-add business. Both today and in the future, Yaskawa will continue to increase its United States manufacturing, which requires a state-of-the-art facility to accommodate the demand of current and future products.

The Yaskawa Value-Add facility is moving from New Berlin, Wis. to Oak Creek, Wis. and relocation will be complete on March 23, 2009.

The new facility will accommodate manufacturing, development, building automation, and marketing for Yaskawa Electric America. The Oak Creek facility will enable Yaskawa to meet the business plan of continual growth to ensure success. General points of interest for the Oak Creek facility include:

• Address is 150 West Oakwood Road – Oak Creek, Wis. 53154
• 107,000 sq. ft. with future expansion opportunity of an additional
  30,000 sq. ft.
• Located approximately six miles south of General Mitchell International Airport, one mile east of I-94 and one mile south of Ryan Road
• Modern work space for production, development, building automation and marketing including a dynamometer room and light-lab

A new Drives Support Directory (Doc. No. BR1063) will be available on or before April 1, 2009.
