EOS has invested 3 million USD into the expansion of its US manufacturing and logistics capacity.
The company has consolidated its North American warehouse and logistics capability at its Pflugerville, Texas, campus into a new 40,000 square foot facility in Belton, Texas, which has enabled the manufacturing space in Pflugerville to be increased.
EOS says the reconfiguration of existing facilities and the opening of the new warehouse demonstrate its commitment to strengthening its U.S. manufacturing capacity. The assembly of its EOS M 290-1, EOS M 290-2, and EOS M 400-4 systems will receive a boost, while EOS has also created more space for a dedicated powder handling area and an in-house machine shop. It is expected that EOS will now be better equipped to meet increasing customer demand and reduce delivery times. The company has also created ten new jobs at the Pflugerville production site, including operations, quality assurance, engineering, and machine commissioning functions.
“Our Texas expansion enables us to scale North American metal AM assembly with both precision and consistency,” said Kent Firestone, SVP of Operations, EOS North America. “From optimising our production areas to onboarding new team members, every step has been carefully designed to accelerate turnaround times while maintaining the quality and reliability our customers expect from EOS.”
"This expansion demonstrates our continued commitment to support the resurgence of American manufacturing," added Glynn Fletcher, president of EOS North America. "This manufacturing facility is not just an investment in our own infrastructure; it is also about standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the U.S. manufacturing community to provide products and services for a superior customer experience. It demonstrates our dedication to the growing U.S. markets where our technology is in greatest demand. We fully understand the criticality that AM plays in the future of domestic manufacturing, and this expansion ensures EOS will continue to play a leading role for years to come."
