Rockwell Automation Showcases End-to-End Autonomous Manufacturing at PACK EXPO 2025

Rockwell Automation, Inc., the world’s largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, will showcase its end-to-end autonomous manufacturing solutions at PACK EXPO 2025 in Las Vegas Sept. 29 – Oct. 1. 

Amidst shifting consumer demand and evolving regulations, Rockwell will demonstrate how it helps CPG manufacturers extend autonomy from raw-material movement via its OTTO autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) into the production process through integration across the Rockwell portfolio. This integrated solution delivers greater speed, efficiency, and resilience in end-to-end operations.

“Autonomous manufacturing is no longer a future concept, it’s here today,” said Steve Deitzer, VP Global Industry, Consumer Packaged Goods, at Rockwell Automation. “Every manufacturer is at a different point in their digital transformation, and we meet them where they are with practical, scalable solutions that unlock measurable value. At PACK EXPO we’re showing how end-to-end autonomy can reshape operations and strengthen business outcomes today.”

Attendees who visit booths SL-13028 and SL-13022 can see interactive demonstrations across the plant lifecycle.

  • Digital twins: Emulate3D digital twin technologies enable manufacturers to virtually design, test, and commission equipment to reduce risk and timelines.
  • DataReady smart machines: Pre-integrated with Logix controllers, FactoryTalk Optix and smart object data models, DataReady machines enable plug-and-play deployment, consistent data flows, and real-time insights for AI-driven optimization.
  • Material staging: Plex Manufacturing Execution System directs OTTO AMRs to automate material staging and delivery while digitally connecting people, processes, and equipment on the plant floor.
  • AI-driven optimization: LogixAI and VisionAI pair real-time AI together to maximize throughput, quality and cost efficiency.

More than 50 Rockwell partners will also feature Rockwell-enabled solutions across the show floor. Additionally, Rockwell will present on the Innovation Stage three times during the week:

  • Transform What’s Possible with Digital Twins (Sept. 29,1:30 p.m.)
  • Industrial AI – Practical Examples to Address Manufacturing Challenges (Sept. 30, 11:30 a.m.)
  • Accelerate Your Digital Journey with DataReady Machines (Oct. 1, 10:30 a.m.)
