"Our focus this year is clear: helping industry move from automation to autonomy to generate measurable business impacts. Visitors will see how industrial AI, digital twins and secure OT architectures are not visions of the future, but high-value, deployable solutions today," said Jordan Reynolds, vice president of artificial intelligence autonomy, Rockwell Automation.
Located in the "AI in Manufacturing" Hall 27 - Booth A22, Rockwell Automation will present practical, realworld applications, AI-enabled smart machines and self-adjusting systems that help manufacturers boost productivity, improve quality and deploy scalable autonomy.
With more than a century of operational technology (OT) expertise and strong IT/OT integration capabilities, Rockwell brings a productionready approach to industrial AI designed for realtime performance in complex industrial environments. By embedding AI directly into operations, the company enables realtime optimisation, predictive insights and autonomous control across design, commissioning, operations and maintenance.
At Hannover Messe, visitors can explore how this approach supports digital transformation, allowing manufacturers to adopt AI at scale while protecting critical operations and meeting safety and compliance requirements.
Rockwell Automation will demonstrate how manufacturers can transition from traditional automation to autonomous, outcomedriven operations through handson showcases of Emulate3D digital twin software, the Plex Smart Manufacturing Platform, industrial AI solutions, and its SecureOT cybersecurity offering, supported by guided tours and consultantled discussions.
