R&D+i Projects

FAGOR AUTOMATION's successful career has been so, thanks to our investing efforts in R&D+i (Research, Development and innovation) and in infrastructure that made it possible for us to tackle projects of high strategic relevance. An example of this, are the new facilities for photolithography to produce engraved glass that is used in our linear feedback systems.

Traditionally, the company has dedicated more than 10% of its turnover to R&D+i; it currently has 85 R&D engineers and 6 doctors dedicated to developing new automation and optics technologies integrated into the products developed by FAGOR AUTOMATION, among which the following should be pointed out:

  • Real time control software.
  • Analog, digital and power hardware.
  • Design of specific integrated circuites: ASIC's.
  • Digital and analog servo system.
  • Design, development of 16/32-bit multi-processor systems.
  • Optoelectronics.
  • 3D simulation software.
  • Photolithography and deposition.
  • KERNEL.
  • High-level software.
  • Embedded software.
  • NETWORKS/BUSSES.
  • Automation.
