Fortescue Ltd

About

Fortescue is a Perth-based global resources and green energy company, best known as one of the world's largest iron ore producers from its Pilbara operations in Western Australia. The company is pursuing a decarbonization strategy centered on electrifying its mining fleet, including battery-electric 240-tonne haul trucks, and has deployed modified KUKA industrial robot arms to automate the connection of high-power charging cables. Fortescue operates as an industrial robotics adopter rather than a robot manufacturer, choosing proven industrial automation over humanoid platforms for heavy-duty charging tasks.
