At present, the promotion of new industrialization plays a key part in the construction process of China’s manufacturing power, and “5G+ industrial Internet” is an important support for accelerating the process of China’s new industrialization. “As an advanced communication technology, 5G’s deep integration with the industrial Internet will create new opportunities for the manufacturing industry.” Shi An said, “Rockwell looks forward to using the cutting-edge exploration in the field of ‘5G+ industrial Internet’ to give full play to data efficiency, realize information interconnection and resource sharing, and empower more partners to accelerate the realization of digital-intelligence integration and digital-real integration.”

At this year’s China 5G+ Industrial Internet Conference, Rockwell and ICT Institute held a strategic cooperation signing ceremony, and Shi An and Yu Xiaohui, president of ICT Institute, signed on behalf of both sides. Relying on Rockwell’s core technologies including IT/OT (information technology/operation technology) integration, combined with cross-border innovation advantages including Caohejing Rockwell Net Zero Innovation Joint Innovation Center, the two sides will jointly promote technological innovation and talent cultivation in the field of “5G+ Industrial Internet”, and accelerate the transformation of “5G+ Industrial Internet” technology into the manufacturing scene. Help multi-industry partners build 5G fully connected factories with low latency, high reliability, high precision and focus on network security. It is worth mentioning that Rockwell will also use the Spark carbon data service network independently developed by the ICT Institute to further play its own advanced solutions and practical experience in the field of green manufacturing to help local ecological partners accelerate the realization of low-carbon transformation and work together towards a net zero future.
Rockwell Automation reaches strategic cooperation with China Academy of Information and Communications Technology
At this conference, Rockwell and many leading enterprises, including China Mobile, jointly released the results of the “5G endogenous Deterministic Empowered digital Intelligent Factory” series, showing the landing application of the advanced technology of “5G+ industrial deterministic network”. Rockwell is also promoting technological innovation and evolution in the field of “5G+ Industrial Internet” through continuous and close cooperation with local ecological partners. In 2022, Rockwell and the Research Institute of China Mobile Communications Co., Ltd. jointly released the “5G+ Industrial deterministic Network” to solve the security, time ductility and jitter problems that enterprises are concerned about in the process of 5G promotion. Currently, Rockwell’s Industrial EtherNet/IP complies with and interconnects with the same standards as IT, making Rockwell products and solutions highly compatible with 5G networks. This advantage can more efficiently promote the deep integration and landing process of 5G and industrial Internet, and then accelerate the construction of 5G fully connected factories. The results will also play an important role in Rockwell’s efforts to help local partners build sustainable lighthouse factories.
Shi An said: “Deeply ploughed the Chinese market for more than 30 years, Rockwell is a witness and participant in the great navigation era of rapid development of China’s manufacturing industry, and is committed to becoming a driver of high-quality development of China’s manufacturing industry.” By driving the application of innovative technologies, including 5G, Rockwell will help more manufacturing partners achieve efficient digital transformation, and further reap the value of business model innovation and blue ocean expansion, leading the future of unlimited possibilities.”
