has arrived at AUTOMATE 2026 with a 20-company delegation, positioning Taiwan's advanced manufacturing supply chain directly at the center of the continent's automation transformation.

from June 22 to 25, AUTOMATE 2026 stands as North America's largest robotics and automation showcase. The

(Booth 13047 & 13051) brings together firms spanning precision components, smart equipment, industrial computers, edge computing, and AI-driven system integration , a cross-section of the PLC ecosystem that underpins modern factory floors worldwide.

, expanding at a CAGR of 9.5, 9.7%. Within this, the industrial edge market , which includes PLCs, edge gateways, and industrial PCs , is projected to reach

, registering a 16.1% CAGR. Taiwan's delegation arrives at a moment when North American procurement teams are actively diversifying their PLC and component supply chains.

, supported by a deeply integrated electronics manufacturing ecosystem. The firms exhibiting at the pavilion this year represent the midstream and upstream tiers of industrial automation , from precision linear guides and servo motors to industrial AI edge computers and full-system integration services.

For global procurement professionals, the pavilion offers direct access to suppliers whose components feed into the PLC architectures of major automation brands. As lead times for European and North American-sourced automation hardware remain extended, Taiwanese alternatives are increasingly viewed as strategic rather than secondary.
