Rockwell Automation held its 18th annual Automation Fair event in Anaheim, California on November 11-12, 2009. Attendance was approximately 7,700, with over 4,500 coming from manufacturers, processors, and OEMs. This year’s theme was smart, safe, and sustainable manufacturing solutions focused on plant-wide optimization, machine-builder performance, and sustainable production. Automation Fair’s popularity is driven by its free user training, technical sessions, tutorials, workshops, hands-on labs, and forums for the food & beverage, OEM machine builder, life science, oil & gas, and water & wastewater industries. This provides the justification that end users and OEMs require to send key personnel to the event, especially during these recovering but still turbulent economic times.
