FOXLINK GROUP LAUNCHES ITS FIRST U.S. AI FACTORY IN FORT WORTH, TEXAS, MARKING STRATEGIC SHIFT FROM EMS TO AI-POWERED MANUFACTURING

Fort Worth facility marks a defining step in Foxlink’s transformation from a traditional EMS provider to a global AI Factory operator

Foxlink Group announced yesterday (July 14, 2026) the official launch of its new facility in Fort Worth, Texas, as the company’s first AI Factory in the United States.  The facility marks the starting point for bringing Physical AI onto the production floor, a defining step in Foxlink’s ongoing transformation from a traditional electronics manufacturing services (EMS) provider into a global AI Factory operator.

Behind the Texas launch is  Foxlink’s AI Factory model  which connects computing power to the factory floor. Group affiliate UBILINK  operates a large-scale GPU compute clusters in Taiwan, built on NVIDIA H100 infrastructure, providing the computing foundation, while SYNCROBOTIC is  developing the AI and robotics systems that will extend that capability  onto the industrial floor. The model  is designed to scale: AI capabilities proven at one site can be extended to others across Foxlink’s global manufacturing network over time.

At the Texas facility, Foxlink is introducing the AI Factory model in phases across its surface mount technology (SMT) and final assembly, testing and packaging (FATP) production processes, with AI-driven automation designed to improve production flexibility and reduce changeover costs. As the newest addition to Foxlink’s global manufacturing network, the facility is built to respond directly to North American customers’ demand for localized, resilient supply chains. It reflects the same transformation now underway across Foxlink’s operations worldwide.

“Foxlink’s forty years of manufacturing experience and our footprint across global industrial sites are the real capital behind this transformation. We are turning that experience into real AI capability. This is not just an upgrade to a production line, it’s a redefinition of how a manufacturer operates. Foxlink is not a traditional electronics manufacturer anymore. We intend to help global manufacturers build their own AI capability, the same way we are building ours,” said Freddy Kuo, CEO of Foxlink Group.

Foxlink’s Texas expansion comes as manufacturers worldwide move to bring AI directly onto the production floor, rather than treating it as a standalone initiative layered on top of existing operations. The shift is being driven by supply chain disruption, rising labor costs, and growing customer demand for localized production. With the Fort Worth facility, Foxlink turns decades of manufacturing experience toward a new chapter in the industry.
