Do you believe more domestic manufacturing and local support centers lead to better customer service?
Modern Atomics is expanding its regional manufacturing footprint by opening an Edge AI semiconductor fabrication facility in Austin and a logistics center in Round Rock. The growth aims to triple the company's production capacity for power supplies and infrastructure components.
Why it matters
Expanding local production capacity helps reduce latency for Edge AI processing by keeping data closer to its source. The new logistics operations are designed to improve supply chain efficiency by shortening product lead times and lowering shipping costs.
The new Round Rock logistics center is located at 2700, offering will-call order pickup and technical support on a 24/7 basis.
The players
