Western New York's Manufacturing Renaissance Embraces Cobots

Buffalo's robotics growth builds on its revitalized manufacturing base — the Buffalo Manufacturing Works (EWI) helps local manufacturers adopt collaborative robots, while Moog Inc. in East Aurora (a precision motion-control leader) supplies critical actuators and servo systems for industrial and defense robots worldwide. ACV Auctions uses automated inspection technology, and the Buffalo Niagara region's food-processing industry increasingly deploys robotic packaging and palletizing from Fanuc and ABB.

RivCut serves Buffalo robotics companies with CNC-machined actuator housings, servo-motor brackets, and custom motion-control components — with the tight tolerances Moog-class precision systems demand.
