NASHUA, N.H. — Waypoint Robotics Inc. today announced that it has moved to a larger facility in New Hampshire. The maker of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) for manufacturing said its new location here includes four times more space for design, engineering, quality control, a test track, and production.

“The response for our Vector and MAV3K AMRs has been strong, and we quickly outgrew our Merrimack, N.H., location,” stated Jason Walker, co-founder and CEO of Waypoint Robotics. “We need space to ramp up production, as customers transition from pilot programs into scaling their robot fleets. We also feel fortunate to remain in southern New Hampshire, an area that has been incredibly supportive and valuable in fostering our growth.”

In addition to increasing production space, Waypoint Robotics said its new building has more space to show customers how its AMRs can help their operations.

“Businesses of all sizes are having trouble attracting and retaining talent and want to give their existing, valued workforce the tools they need to be more effective in an Industry 4.0 environment,” Walker said. “We can demonstrate how quickly Vector and MAV3K can be set up to do real work in the real world. Workers on the job today can use these tools with confidence and take pride in making their companies more efficient and competitive.”

In addition, Waypoint plans to host local industrial and community STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) events in Nashua, N.H.

For instance, on Tuesday, Oct. 29, Waypoint will host the third stop on the New Hampshire Tech Alliance (NHTA) Listening Tour, which is intended to foster new ideas, connections, and partnerships. Members of the New Hampshire technology community and the public at large will be treated to a tour of the new facility and autonomous mobile robot demonstrations.
