Azbil Corporation announced it will build two laboratory buildings at Fujisawa Technology Center, the Azbil Group’s central R&D base, for conducting experiments. Azbil aims to enhance its technological development facilities for accelerating R&D of advanced system solutions and devices for the Group’s next stage of growth. This expansion will boost Fujisawa Technology Center’s development capabilities in advanced system solutions that use cloud computing and AI, as well as in high-performance, high-precision devices.
Boasting the latest experiment facilities, the first laboratory building will have a building area of 2,230 m2 with a total floor area of 10,721 m2 over its six floors and replace the previous laboratory building. The second laboratory building will have a building area of 1,336 m2, a total floor area of 4,217 m2 over its three floors, and a clean room for development and production. The building will also feature a measurement standards laboratory for furthering development of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors, which are at the center of Azbil’s sensing technology.
Azbil is committed to maintaining and improving the competitiveness of its MEMS sensors through its proprietary technology, process technology and development and production expertise cultivated over many years. The company also aims to deliver a stable supply of high-performance sensors and develop new products, as well as expand its business to new areas revolving around its sensors.
