Fermator Invests EUR4 Million

Fermator Group, the global manufacturer of automatic elevator doors headquartered in Reus, Spain, announced on February 5 it invested more than EUR4 million (US$4.1 million) to modernize logistics and production during 2024. The transformation included modernizing machinery, redesigning the internal distribution of its facilities and adopting advanced technologies. A new automated manufacturing line features a warehouse for steel formats directly connected to laser-cutting and paneling machines, in addition to the existing punching machine with shears. This system optimizes processes, applying requirements established for “efficient manufacturing at the highest level,” Fermator observed. Two technologically advanced robots have been incorporated to optimize precision and reliability. The modernization also included the incorporation of intelligent warehouses that combine software and hardware to achieve efficient materials flow with transport technologies using autonomous mobile robots, or AMRs.
