Bobcat is recognized in Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies’ manufacturing awards category. According to the company, Bobcat has advanced its manufacturing facilities—both in terms of its footprint and the technology within its many global locations.
Recent updates to its facilities have included a $9.3 million automated press system in its Gwinner, N.D., manufacturing facility, technology in its Statesville, N.C., facility that streamlines component inspection and a new robotic forming press in its Johnson Creek, Wis., location that minimizes operators’ manual labor while improving precision.
Since 2022, Bobcat has launched several industry-first machines, including the all-electric T7X compact track loader, the all-electric concept S7X skid-steer loader and the fully electric and autonomous concept pair of loaders, the RogueX and the RogueX2.
This year’s Most Innovative Companies program showcases 58 industry categories, with manufacturing, health, climate, energy and AI among its popular categories. A panel of Fast Company editors and writers identified the companies driving progress around the world and across industries, evaluating thousands of submissions through a competitive application process.
