Emulate3D represents a part of Rockwell Automation's production logistics offering that will be highlighted at MODEX 2026.
Rockwell Automation announced it will showcase its production logistics system at MODEX 2026 in Atlanta.
The company said that this marks the first time Rockwell is presenting a connected approach to material flow and production operations on the Material Handling Industry (MHI) stage.
Rockwell Automation said that the MODEX demonstration shows how production logistics enables manufacturers to connect machines, material movement and systems across their facility.
The company said that its platform enables end-to-end autonomous operations and transforms fragmented automation into a coordinated operation. From simulation through to execution, Rockwell Automation said that manufacturers can design, orchestrate and automate material flow across their plant floors, helping improve throughput, reduce bottlenecks and bolster operational resilience.
This capability is becoming increasingly critical as adoption of robotics and automation technologies is projected to grow from 41% today to 83% within the next five years, according to the MHI 12th Annual Industry Report. The same report ranks these technologies as having the highest potential to create a competitive advantage at 63%.
“Rather than showcasing individual automation technologies, Rockwell is presenting a plant-wide approach that connects material movement with production operations,” said Greg Gernert Jr., VP of production logistics and technology integration at Rockwell Automation. “This reflects a broader shift across the industry, where material movement is no longer a standalone automation project; it’s a coordinated system that directly drives operational outcomes across the factory floor.”
Rockwell Automation highlighted the following key components of its production logistics system:
A recent OTTO AMR deployment at one of the world’s largest automotive OEMs delivered a 20% increase in production rate. Rockwell Automation said that this demonstrates the transformation potential of its autonomous operations capabilities.
By connecting machines, material movement and systems into a unified operational ecosystem, Rockwell said that it helps manufacturers move beyond disconnected automation initiatives toward fully integrated, end-to-end autonomous operations across their facility.
