What Fuji Robotics does

Fuji Robotics, the US operating brand of Japan's Fuji Yusoki Kogyo Co. Ltd. (founded 1944), designs and manufactures robotic palletizing systems for end-of-line automation in manufacturing. Its core technology is a proprietary ball-screw mechanical drive, marketed under the Fuji Ace sub-brand across three primary models — the EC-102 (compact, low-to-medium speed), EC-171 (extended reach, medium output), and EC-201 (highest speed and payload) — with modular end effectors covering bag, case, vacuum, and water-jug applications at throughputs up to 30 bags per minute. The company sells these systems primarily through direct enterprise engagement supported by engineering services (layout design, integrator matching, after-sales support) and a channel partner network that includes integrators such as Delta Technology and OEM partners such as American-Newlong. Revenue is generated from hardware sales and professional services across food and beverage, milling, agriculture, powder and bulk solids, and general manufacturing customers in North America, Europe, Japan, Hong Kong, India, and Latin America. The company claims over 16,000 systems installed worldwide, a 63% market share in Japan, and over 20% globally, making it the self-described No. 1 robotic palletizer manufacturer.

Core offering

Fuji Robotics designs, manufactures, and sells robotic palletizing systems for industrial end-of-line automation. Its product line, branded Fuji Ace, includes the EC-102, EC-171, and EC-201 robotic palletizer models, supported by specialized grippers (vacuum, auto width adjustment) for bag, case, water jug, and mixed-product handling. The company provides engineering design, turnkey installation through integrator partners, and ongoing after-sales engineering support to manufacturers worldwide.

Product overview

Fuji Robotics offers a unified portfolio of robotic palletizing systems built around its core Fuji Ace robot line, comprising three main models: the EC-102 (compact, low-to-medium speed), EC-171 (medium output, extended reach), and EC-201 (fastest and strongest, high-output). These robots support specialized applications including bag palletizing, case palletizing, vacuum palletizing, and water jug palletizing through various end effectors. The company provides complete end-of-line automation solutions including engineering support, turnkey installation, and after-sales service.

Partnerships

Two partnerships are on record, tiered core.

• Delta TechnologycoreImplementation/ SI/ Consulting PartnerDelta Technology, an integrator and automation expert for complex manufacturing, partnered with Fuji Robotics to offer robotic palletizing systems to US end users. The partnership addresses the rising demand for end-of-line automation due to increased labor costs, providing fast, cost-effective, reliable, and flexible solutions to companies in various industries.
• American-NewlongcoreOEM/ Whitelabel/ Licensing PartnerAmerican-Newlong, a North American manufacturer of bagging equipment, partnered with Fuji Robotics to integrate Fuji Ace robotic palletizers with their bagging systems. The partnership enables American-Newlong to offer automated palletizing alongside their bagging equipment, solve workforce problems for their customers, and enter new markets like farms with space constraints. Fuji's robot arm is manufactured and sold separately from bagging equipment.
