Toyota Establishes 'Toyota Robotics' Division to Consolidate R&D for Factory Automation
【国际动态】丰田成立“机器人事业部”：整合全公司研发力量，瞄准制造业自动化新增长点
On November 5, Toyota announced plans to establish a new corporate division, Toyota Robotics, effective January 1, 2027. Led by Shiga Takefumi, Chief Production Officer, the unit will consolidate dispersed robotics resources to transition from technology development to factory application and commercialization. Toyota aims to first address automation needs within its own factories and supply chain, estimating a cumulative demand for approximately 400,000 robots between fiscal years 2028 and 2040. The company intends to transform robotics into a new business pillar starting from 2030, leveraging its manufacturing experience to develop scalable solutions that assist human workers rather than just replacing them.
