Beckhoff Automation reported Aug. 28 that it’s opened a new, regional office in Alpharetta, Ga., near Atlanta. It will serve as a home base for local, sales-support engineers, as well as a regional hub for training, seminars and other business activities, and help Beckhoff continue its customer and market-share growth across the southeast U.S.
The new office features a state-of-the-art training room to keep customers and employees up to date on the latest advances in automation software, networking and motion control. To support special projects and proof-of-concept validation for customers, the facility also has a research and development room stocked with technologies that Beckhoff engineers can use to collaborate with experts across industries.
The new Beckhoff office is conveniently located in Sanctuary Park, a lush business campus in a 150-acre nature preserve. It also offers convenient transportation to local airports.
“The new Atlanta office has already become the home base for our Georgia-based team of sales and application engineers, and the main hub for our southeast region,” says Buck Tanner, business development manager at Beckhoff USA. “Beckhoff continues to experience significant market share growth across industries in Georgia and surrounding states, with many customers who are excited to redefine what’s possible through adaptive automation technologies like XTS and XPlanar. With the new facility in Alpharetta, we’re not only creating opportunities for our team to collaborate and share knowledge, but we’re also demonstrating a firm commitment to our customers and their success.”
In addition to its expansion in Atlanta, Beckhoff has opened new or relocated U.S. facilities in Los Angeles, Chicago and Austin, Texas, during 2024. Along with its U.S. headquarters in the Minneapolis area, Beckhoff maintains numerous regional offices in U.S. metropolitan areas.
