Robotics powerhouse in South Korea plants deeper roots in Europe. Doosan Robotics has launched its expanded Frankfurt branch in a bold new chapter in its European robotics expansion strategy.
A Major Milestone in Doosan’s European Cobots Strategy
The Frankfurt Opening in Numbers
Doosan Robotics announced it has opened an expanded European branch in Frankfurt, Germany, as part of its efforts to accelerate business growth across the region. The opening ceremony, held on May 19, was attended by approximately 200 guests, including key European partners, existing and prospective customers, robotics associations, and local media.

This wasn’t just a ribbon-cutting. It was a statement. Frankfurt Germany’s financial and logistics heartland is the ideal launchpad for a company targeting Europe’s most industrially advanced economies.
In 2024, the company established a subsidiary in Europe and signed partnerships with system integrators and dealers in major European markets such as Germany, France and the Netherlands.
What the New Frankfurt Facility Actually Offers
Service, Training, and Application Development Under One Roof
This isn’t just a bigger office it’s a fully equipped regional hub. The new facility adds space for robotics demonstrations, application development, and customer support, while serving as a regional hub for system integrators and partners. The move also includes expanding local repair capabilities with parts inventory and replacement systems designed to reduce downtime for customers.Â
Training programs are getting a serious upgrade too. Doosan is expanding training programs, including hands-on repair sessions where participants can disassemble and work directly on robotic systems.
Additionally, the company plans to operate a showroom where customers can experience robotic solutions at any time, and will also establish an Application Center where customers and engineers can collaborate to develop customized robotic solutions. That’s a level of local, hands-on support that enterprise buyers increasingly demand.Â

Showcasing Real-World Cobot Applications
At the opening event on May 19, Doosan showcased a range of commercial applications including palletizing, machine tending, AI vision-guided pick-and-place systems, and automated drink preparation. These aren’t futuristic concepts they’re solutions ready to deploy on factory floors today. AI Insider
The company’s leadership made its ambitions crystal clear. “The expanded Frankfurt branch gives us a stronger platform to serve customers and partners across Europe with greater speed, proximity, and technical support,” said Inwon Park, President of Doosan Robotics. “Beyond supplying products, we will continue to strengthen our brand trust and business competitiveness in the European market by building a locally integrated service and training infrastructure.” I-Connect007

Conclusion Europe’s Cobot Race Just Got More Competitive
Doosan Robotics’ Frankfurt expansion is far more than a relocation it’s a strategic commitment to European manufacturing and automation. The company is putting money into local service infrastructure, application development and hands-on training, to position itself as a long-term regional partner, not just a product vendor.
For European manufacturers considering collaborative robots, system integrators and automation buyers, Doosan’s bigger footprint means faster support, better customization and a closer relationship with one of the world’s leading cobot makers. Now it’s time to listen.
