[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Kim Jisun] Doosan will join hands with Rockwell Automation, North America's largest industrial automation solution company, to expand its market share of cooperative robots in North America.

The goal is to increase its market share in the global cooperative robot market, which is currently the fifth-largest, in line with the surge in demand for smart factories and digital transformation (DX) in the global industry.

Doosan announced on the 30th that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Rockwell for a "strategic partnership" in Washington, D.C. Doosan CEO Moon Hong-sung, Doosan Robotics CEO Ryu Jung-hoon and Ed Morland, vice president of Rockwell, attended the signing ceremony held on the 25th. Rockwell provides hardware and software used to automate manufacturing facilities such as semiconductors, automobiles, and bios.

According to the agreement, Doosan Robotics, a subsidiary of Doosan, decided to exclusively supply cooperative robots to Rockwell.
