Automation Fair packing them in
After a slow start this morning, Rockwell’s Automation Fair in Chicago is picking up steam as the day goes on with aisles crowded and folks seeking answers to their automation questions.
With around 16,000 people preregistered, Rockwell seems to have a lock on this form of a user group.
In terms of news at the show, Rockwell wants the term automation to blanket the traditional process side and the discrete side of the industry.
The company is now offering a suite of process application capabilities with new hardware and software solutions that include data analysis and reporting capabilities. The company also will feature its expanded critical control expertise with the Pavilion Technologies and ICS Triplex acquisitions, as well as its partnership with Endress + Hauser.
“Rockwell Automation is focused on closing the gap between discrete and process control applications to provide truly integrated plant-wide control,” said Kevin Zaba, director of Process Automation, Rockwell Automation.
