Located in Milford, Conn., the division will serve as the main North American hub for sales, customer support, product service and local inventory. The division will include a dedicated sales team, customer service department, a comprehensive inventory of parts and products, and a fully equipped service and repair center. 

The company also plans to establish manufacturing and assembly capabilities in the facility in the coming months to improve lead times, it said.
