Bodor Laser Commits $20 Million to Strengthen U.S. Manufacturing, Service, and Innovation Capabilities

Bodor Laser, a global leader in fiber laser cutting technology, has announced a strategic $20 million investment to significantly expand its U.S. presence and strengthen local manufacturing, service, and customer support operations. This initiative marks an important step in the company’s long-term growth plan, building on its strong market momentum and reinforcing its commitment to smart manufacturing in North America.

The new investment follows Bodor’s $200 million development of its 250,000-square-meter global headquarters in China, which serves as the company’s primary innovation and production hub. By accelerating its localized investments, Bodor aims to integrate more deeply into the North American supply chain, reduce delivery lead times, and provide tailored solutions to the unique needs of U.S. manufacturers.

As part of the $20 million initiative, Bodor will focus heavily on expanding its U.S. workforce, with a particular emphasis on its service and technical support teams. The company already has a strong base of over 40 dedicated professionals in the U.S. and more than 100 employees across North America. This expansion will see the addition of specialized technical experts for on-site machine installation, maintenance, and repairs, as well as customer support staff to provide training and remote troubleshooting.

“Expanding our team is essential to maintaining the high level of service our customers expect,” said Su, General Manager of Bodor Laser Inc. “This investment is not just about increasing headcount—it’s about hiring the right talent to deliver fast, localized support that customers can rely on.”

A key element of Bodor’s expansion strategy is the creation of a state-of-the-art Technology and Service Experience Center in the United States. This advanced facility will serve multiple strategic functions, including:

• Research & Development: An advanced lab dedicated to laser cutting and welding technologies, focusing on innovation for the North American market.
• Customer Engagement: Live demonstrations and hands-on training programs to help customers experience Bodor’s latest solutions firsthand.
• Localized Production: Enhanced assembly capabilities to speed up delivery timelines and reduce logistics costs.

By combining technology innovation, customer training, and localized assembly under one roof, the center will improve service responsiveness and drive faster adoption of Bodor’s high-performance solutions.

Reliable equipment performance and minimal downtime are critical in manufacturing, and Bodor is making this a priority. The company already operates a well-stocked spare parts warehouse in the U.S., but as part of the investment, it will significantly expand inventory levels, storage capacity, and fulfillment efficiency.

This will enable faster response times, improved supply chain resilience, and nationwide access to critical components. Su noted, “Beyond the 5-year warranty we currently offer for laser sources, laser heads, and control systems, expanding our parts inventory ensures that our customers’ operations continue running smoothly without costly delays.”

With over 1,000 customers and leadership in 60kW ultra-high power laser technology, Bodor’s investment signals strong confidence in the growth potential of the U.S. manufacturing sector. By bolstering its service, technology, and manufacturing footprint, the company is positioning itself as a long-term partner to U.S. manufacturers—offering faster delivery, localized expertise, and cutting-edge technology to meet the most stringent performance and regulatory standards.
