## Stäubli Expands Manufacturing Facility in Bangalore

Stäubli is expanding its manufacturing facility in Bangalore, increasing its capacity and capability to produce the critical MC4-Evo1 and MC4-Evo2 connectors for the solar PV sector with higher capacity and quality.

The expanded facility will be equipped with automated assembly lines and advanced quality control systems. These connectors are critical components that connect solar modules to inverters and balance-of-system equipment. The investment also reinforces Stäubli's commitment to India's growing solar energy market and its support for the 'Make in India' initiative.

Gerald Vogt, CEO of the Stäubli Group, stated that India plays a significant role in their global growth and manufacturing strategies, emphasizing that the investment will ensure global supply capacity and support high-performance PV connector solutions worldwide.

As India's solar energy sector grows rapidly, the demand for reliable and locally manufactured components is increasing. This expansion provides higher production volumes, reduced lead times, and improved supply chain resilience for OEMs, EPC players, and asset owners.
