Mitsubishi Electric Corporation announced on June 20, 2023, that it will invest an additional 42.5 billion yen, or approximately 275 million euros, to construct a second production building for the manufacture of factory automation (FA) control-system products at Owariasahi City, Aichi Prefecture part of its Nagoya Works campus.

The requirement to multi-task while maintaining precise control over a machine (or multiple machines) means a modular PLC construction is more important than ever.
