What: Harmonic Drive headquarters
Where: Dunham Ridge, Beverly
Built: 2018-2019
Owner: Harmonic Drive LLC
Construction of a new 100,000-square-foot headquarters for manufacturer Harmonic Drive LLC is under way in preparation for a summer 2019 opening.
In September, the company acquired a 5-acre parcel from Woburn-based Cummings Properties for $6 million. A former division of United Shoe Machinery Corp., Harmonic Drive produces components used in the robotics and semiconductor manufacturing industries.
The move from a two-building headquarters in Peabody will enable Harmonic Drive to hire an additional 60 employees, the company said. Beverly-based Connolly Brothers is the general contractor.
They Said It:
“Given Harmonic Drive’s impressive growth, its record of success and innovation, and its historical ties to Beverly, we could not be more pleased to welcome this firm back home.” −Steve Drohosky, vice president, Cummings Properties
