Rockwell Automation
About
Rockwell Automation, headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is a global industrial automation company with a dedicated Water & Wastewater industry division providing control systems, digital transformation tools, and cybersecurity solutions for water utilities. Their flagship platform for the water sector is the PlantPAx Distributed Control System, which replaces legacy SCADA architectures with an integrated, plant-wide control and information platform. For advanced process optimization, Rockwell offers Model Predictive Control technology that continuously adjusts aeration, chemical dosing, and anaerobic digestion parameters to reduce energy and chemical consumption. The company addresses the critical workforce knowledge gap in water utilities through AR/VR-based work instructions, digital training records, and standardized operating procedures that capture expertise from retiring operators. Their Smart Motor Control solutions are engineered specifically for pump stations and aeration systems, incorporating built-in protection and diagnostics. On the cybersecurity side, Rockwell provides OT network security for critical water infrastructure. Predictive maintenance analytics detect equipment anomalies before failures occur, extending asset life and reducing unplanned downtime. Rockwell's water solutions target pumping stations, grit chambers, aeration tanks, anaerobic digesters, cogeneration systems, and environmental monitoring across municipal and industrial water, wastewater, and desalination facilities. The company positions its technology roadmap toward autonomous plant operations where facilities self-optimize using AI-driven analytics, digital twin emulation, and continuous performance improvement.
