Yamaha Robotics Corporation has announced the integration of its European liaison office, “Apic Yamada German Liaison Office (AGL),” into Yamaha Motor’s European subsidiary, “YAMAHA MOTOR EUROPE German Branch Office, Robotics Business (YME).” The change came into effect on January 1, 2026 and aims to further accelerate the development of the SEMI business (semiconductor back-end processes) in the European market.
Consequently, YME will now provide comprehensive total solutions encompassing not only electronic component mounting (SMT) and industrial robots (FA), but also semiconductor back-end processes (SEMI).
Following the integration, the company will strengthen its sales support and service structure in Europe. By maximizing the comprehensive capabilities of the Yamaha Motor Group, we will deliver faster and higher-quality services. Building on the information gathering and sales support previously handled by AGL, we will leverage synergies across the SMT, FA, and SEMI businesses to further enhance our presence in the European market.
Under this new structure, the company says it will strive to create value that exceeds customers’ expectations and build deeper partnerships.
