Curtiss-Wright announced October 29 that it will invest $30 million to expand its operations in Round Rock, Texas, supporting nuclear energy and industrial applications.
The project will increase manufacturing capacity for pressure and temperature sensors within the company’s Naval & Power segment. It will also make room for future instrumentation and control products, including radiation monitoring systems.
The company said the expansion is intended to improve production flow as well as increase manufacturing space. Plans include an Advanced Innovation Center focused on engineering, a metrology testing laboratory and a project management office.
Curtiss-Wright expects to add employees at the facility, but its announcement did not specify a hiring total or completion date.
Management linked the investment to anticipated demand from existing commercial nuclear reactors and new construction. Those expectations explain the spending decision; they do not establish future reactor orders or completed sales.
The announcement concerns a planned expansion of an existing operation. The new capacity and employment gains remain prospective while the investment is carried out.
