In a grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony, FANUC unveiled its new Canadian Headquarters in Mississauga, Ontario to industry partners, customers and media on November 21. The new facility, which will serve as a hub for cutting-edge robotics technology, hosted over 250 attendees in a celebration that included remarks from company leadership and advanced technology demonstrations.

This milestone marks a significant step in a series of strategic investments in facilities across the Americas, underscoring an unwavering commitment to innovation, customer support, and economic growth in the region.

“Meeting the unique needs of our Canadian customers is at the heart of every decision we make,” said Peter Fitzgerald, general manager of FANUC Canada, Ltd. “That’s why we’re excited to unveil our new Canada headquarters and celebrate our expanded presence in this vibrant region. Whether it’s a large assembly operation or a start-up looking for their first robot, we’re eager to help Canadian manufacturers overcome today’s production challenges with our cutting-edge technologies.”

FANUC’s new headquarters based just outside of Toronto showcases the company’s most advanced robotics and automation solutions in a spacious product showroom that features interactive demonstrations of the latest CNCs, robotics and ROBOMACHINEs. Additionally, the comprehensive automation center is home to FANUC’s sales team, in-depth and enhanced training programs, dedicated engineering support and responsive 24/7 customer service.

At the grand opening event, attendees enjoyed interactive technology demonstrations that included FANUC’s latest products:

  • Flexible Multi-Arm Welding: Featuring the R-1000iA/100F robot, an ARC Mate 100iD welding robot, and iRVision® 3DV, this dual-robot system showcased its coordinated motion, picking an auger from a rack and simulating welding as the part rotated
  • AI Assisted Palletizing and Depalletizing: The M-710iD/50M robot, combined with two iRVision 3DV/1600 vision sensors and the FANUC iPC, used AI Box Detection software to locate difficult-to-distinguish boxes, depalletize and palletize them
  • Cobot Palletizing: The CRX-30iA cobot—with a 30 kg payload and 1,756 mm of reach—used PalletTool 3 software to efficiently palletize two pallets from a single infeed using a multi-case gripper
  • Food Assembly with Robots: The LR Mate 200iD tabletop industrial robot assembled cheeseburgers alongside the SR-6iA/C – both food-grade/cleanroom robots – to pick and place buns, burgers and toppings
