POSCO DX and POSCO Mobility Solution announced on the 14th that they held a three-party business agreement signing ceremony with Yaskawa Electric, one of the world’s three largest industrial robot manufacturers.
Through this business agreement, Yaskawa’s robots will be more widely applied at the production sites of POSCO Mobility Solution’s core product, the “driving motor core.” The companies plan to expand the scope of application to overseas sites including Cheonan and Pohang plants, as well as Poland, Mexico, and India.

For this purpose, POSCO DX will be responsible for tasks such as robot placement that takes into account integration with existing production facilities and the design of robot automation systems. Yaskawa will supply robots optimized for the respective environments and provide technical support, including after-sales service. POSCO Group stated, “The group plans to expand robot automation based on physical artificial intelligence (AI) not only within its affiliates but also to external industrial sites.”
