“We wanted to meet the growing demands of our customers and the industry by growing every facet of automation and robotics solutions,” said Aurelio Banda, Motion’s Senior Vice President, Automation Intelligence. “Our investments allow for future, incremental expansion within our structure up to 30% beyond our current growth plans.
