Lexington’s Kinemetrix is celebrating the completion of its expanded manufacturing operation.
The company, which provides robotic automation and advanced manufacturing solutions, began the expansion project in January 2024 with a $4 million investment.
Additional Capacity to Serve Customers
The project allowed the company to expand its existing manufacturing operation, adopt new precision manufacturing equipment and add 12 engineering and technician jobs to its current Lexington facility.
The strategic expansion has allowed Kinemetrix to double its capacity and grow revenues by more than 50% since 2023.
With the completion of the expansion, the company is now positioned for further growth in 2026.
“Since our last major expansion, we’ve continued quietly building strong internal teams and an array of next-generation robotic assembly technology,” said Jim Peyton, President of Kinemetrix. “It’s now time to move to the next level of scale. We’re growing along with our market-leading customers and building additional capacity to serve the accelerating manufacturing growth in our region.”
The new operational space will allow Kinemetrix to continue supporting the rapidly expanding advanced manufacturing and EV industries of the region.
30 Years of Business
Founded in 1995, Kinemetrix is a leader in robotic automation and advanced manufacturing solutions, committed to innovation and lean manufacturing principles.
The company currently employs 43 Kentuckians at its headquarters in Lexington.
“Kentucky’s advanced manufacturing industry continues to create new jobs and spark economic growth in communities throughout the state,” said Governor Andy Beshear. “Today’s ribbon-cutting event is an exciting next step for Kinemetrix here in the commonwealth. This expansion will not only support our growing EV sector; it will also add quality, skilled job opportunities to the Lexington area. I want to thank company leadership for their commitment to the commonwealth and look forward to their continued success.”
“We work hard to help create an environment that supports our local business community and job growth,” said Lexington Mayor Linda Gorton. “Congratulations to Kinemetrix, a Lexington success story.”
