New facility for factory automation
Mitsubishi Electric Corporation said its “India Coimbatore FA Center” in Coimbatore will further strengthen the service network of the company’s factory automation (FA) products in India and facilitate expansion of its FA system business.
It is scheduled to commence operations from 1 February 2019, said Mitsubishi in a news release on 22 Jan 2019.
Located in the south of the country, Coimbatore is one of India’s major industrial centers, hosting companies active in the textile, automotive parts and IT sectors – all areas where demand for FA products and their related services is expected to increase.
FA Centre’s target FA products are: programmable logic controllers, inverters, servo motors, graphic operation terminals, robots, numerical controllers.
Until now, servicing of Mitsubishi Electric’s FA products in India has been handled by the company’s Pune FA Center, established in January 2012, and by other offices throughout India.
However, to further improve access to timely service and support, the company decided to establish the new FA Center in Coimbatore, where it will provide training, technical consultation and system proposals aimed at meeting the rising expectations of local customers.

Its business is: Factory Automation and Industrial Systems (development, manufacturing, sales, after-sales service); Air Conditioners, Visual & Imaging Systems, Semiconductors & Devices (sales, after-sales service); Transportation Systems (manufacturing, sales, after-sales service). fiinews.com
