Doosan Bobcat will be making a series of investments in new technology, machinery and processes at its Innovation Centre in Dobris, Czech Republic.
Doosan Bobcat sees this R&D capability as vital to maintaining its competitive advantage in EMEA region, so these investments can be seen as a consolidation of this advantage. They will encompass all operations in the Innovation Centre, from rapid prototyping and prototype assembly to performance and durability testing.
In the last 12 months, Doosan Bobcat has made several more important investments at its Innovation Centre, including: a CNC horizontal boring machine; a CNC five-axis milling machine and a dynamometer. The total cost of these investments was €1.41 million.
Alongside the Innovation Centre, which is focused on R&D, the Dobris site also houses manufacturing, sourcing and training.
