Rockwell Automation is a global provider of industrial automation and digital transformation solutions, operating across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia Pacific, and Latin America. The company is organized into three segments: Intelligent Devices, Software & Control, and Lifecycle Services, which together cover hardware components, control systems, software platforms, and ongoing support services.
The company operates on a business-to-business model, selling automation equipment, software, and services to manufacturers in discrete end markets (automotive, semiconductor, e-commerce, and warehouse automation), hybrid end markets (food and beverage, life sciences, and tire), and process end markets (energy, mining, and chemicals). It distributes products through a mix of independent distributors and a direct sales force.
Founded in 1903 and headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Rockwell Automation was formerly known as Rockwell International Corporation before adopting its current name in February 2002. As a major player in the electrical components and equipment sub-industry, the company benefits from long-term industrial trends such as factory modernization, labor automation, and the integration of digital technologies into manufacturing operations.
