Adept Technologies has moved its headquarters from Pleasanton, CA, USA to a facility eight miles north in San Ramon, CA, USA.

The strategic move was made to combine Adept’s multiple Pleasanton locations into a unified facility that will promote stronger communications, increase operational efficiencies, and ultimately provide greater service and support for customers. Additionally, it will enable the company to introduce and better showcaseproducts and technologies.

Last September, Adept Technologies was acquired by OMRON Corporation for approximately $200 million in a move that strengthened the company’s industrial automation business. The acquisition, according to OMRON press release, was part of the company’s OMRON's "ILO+S" (Input, Logic, Output and Safety) strategy for its Industrial Automation Business, which provides automation solutions for the manufacturing industries.

Yutaka Miyanaga, OMRON Industrial Automation Business Company President, commented on the deal back in September: We are delighted Adept Technology, a world leader inrobotics, has agreed to join OMRON. This acquisition is part of our strategy to enhance our automation technology and position us for long term growth. Robotics will elevate our offering of advanced automation."
