Federal, state, and local government officials joined factory-automation supplier Bosch Rexroth (www.boschrexroth-us.com) last month in celebrating the opening of its new Tech Center East in Rochester Hills, MI.

The event included displays of state-of-the-art drive, motion and control concepts and systems designed and developed at the center. The facility will house 120 workers and bring together technical personnel from the company’s hydraulics, pneumatics, electric drives, and linear motion and assembly technologies groups.

“This facility is a sign of the good things that are happening in Oakland County,” says Rep. Joseph Knollenberg (R-MI 9th), who spoke at the ribbon-cutting event. “Though Michigan’s economy has been struggling, when we focus on our strengths, we succeed. This facility focuses on our strengths—R&D, advanced manufacturing and alternative fuels.”
