Jenoptik Automotive North America LLC adds 40,850 square feet of manufacturing space to increase automation capabilities.

Rochester Hills, MI -- In 2017, Jenoptik opened its new 100,000 square feet modern campus of engineering, production, sales and service for its metrology and laser processing business. With last year’s acquisition of Five Lakes Automation and its most recent acquisition of Prodomax Automation in Barrie, Ontario, Canada, Jenoptik is continuing its North American expansion to accommodate a growing automation industry.

With an additional 40,850 square feet of automation manufacturing space close to Rochester Hills, in Auburn Hills, MI, Jenoptik’s Automotive division now has over 345,000 square feet across North America available for automation projects and partnerships.

“We are excited about our recent acquisition of Prodomax and the development of our local manufacturing capabilities. This announces our arrival as a major provider of systems automation and greatly expands our customer bandwidth.

"Jenoptik is firmly committed to marching forward as a full service player in the automation joining systems market, which includes laser cutting and welding”, stated Keith LaPointe, VP of BU Laser Processing, North America.
