As part of an initiative to increase technical support in the Midwest, Epson Robots has expanded its relationship with Air Automation Engineering (AAE), an automation products distributor covering Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska and Wisconsin. The partnership establishes AAE as an official Authorized Epson Service Center, expanding the company’s services beyond selling Epson Robots and automation products to include maintenance and repair of those products.

Finally, Epson Robots has signed Industrial Control, a minority-owned provider of factory automation products and training, as an official distributor of Epson Robots automation products in Michigan.
“Customers are asking for smarter, pre-engineered, and turn-key solutions to help reduce risks and save time,” says Mark Ermatinger, CEO of Industrial Control. “Epson and Industrial Control have great synergy in offering integrated ready-to-implement products that make automation as easy as possible for our joint customers. Epson’s turn-key solutions such as the IntelliFlex Feeding System and All-in-One robots with built-in controllers and integrated machine vision and logic control, bring the ease of use and cost savings needed for the best return on investment.”
Located in Zeeland, MI, Industrial Control was founded in 1975. The company is a second-generation family-owned business, co-owned by brothers Mark and Karl Ermatinger.
