About

Rockwell Automation’s industrial operations event covers industrial automation and digital transformation through keynotes, interactive exhibits, Discovery Theater presentations, guided expo tours, customer and industry viewpoint sessions, partner solutions, product introductions, advanced technical sessions, and hands-on labs. Topic-specific summits address process automation and modern control strategies through the Process Solutions User Group Summit; machine lifecycle challenges and OEM perspectives through the OEM Leader-to-Leader Summit; IT/OT infrastructure, industrial data, AI, MES, and cybersecurity through the Secure Digital Operations Summit; AMRs, advanced motion systems, integrated robotics, intelligent conveyance, orchestration, simulation, and digital engineering through the Production Logistics Summit; and smart machines, robotics, AI, connected operations, autonomous systems, safety architectures, workforce readiness, and evolving regulations through the Smart Safety Summit. Off-site tours cover a Cambridge Water Department control migration from PLC-5 to ControlLogix, secure centralized water-plant operations, Plex and Rockwell PLC applications at Downeast Cider, connected packaging automation at Harpak-ULMA, AI-enabled robotic piece-picking at RightHand Robotics, Plex-enabled digital transformation at Teddie Peanut Butter, and Rockwell Automation’s Chelmsford advanced motion, safety, sensing, and Independent Cart Technology demonstrations. Keynotes are open to all attendees. Summit access is included with both pass options, while off-site tours have limited capacity and are unavailable to distributors, students, and educators.
