Visitors to the Emerson booth will discover how businesses of all sizes may use a Floor to Cloud strategy to boost employee productivity, optimize performance quality, and promote sustainable growth for both short-term and long-term success.
Located in the Hall A5 assembly and handling area, booth 514 will feature immersive demonstrations and displays. This interactive hub will showcase how products from the Emerson portfolio, including Afag, Movicon™, PACEdge and PACSystems™ brands, combine to form intelligent solutions that transform operations across the factory floor and deliver ongoing value.
The highlights:
Live demonstrations in the Emerson booth will focus on ways the solution provider can help companies leverage advanced automation and data-driven operations to boost manufacturing performance, achieve carbon-neutral manufacturing and maximize worker potential. The exhibits include:
A plug-and-play bowl feeding solution, which leverages standardized, flexible, highprecision components to boost accuracy, speed and reliability of small and micro part feeding applications. Whether in high-volume production, cleanroom environments or handling complex geometries, this adaptable, intelligent part feeding and sorting system lets manufacturers maximize operational efficiency and throughput.
A global dashboard display, which helps companies unlock the power of their operations with seamless data integration. By connecting machine by machine and factory by factory, manufacturers can compare performance and energy consumption, apply benchmarks and drive continuous improvement.
A high-speed, electric pick and place system, which demonstrates how manufacturers can improve the precision and performance of this common production line application. The system can significantly reduce energy use and maintenance costs while increasing throughput.
An automated ballpoint pen assembly solution, which showcases how the full range of Emerson technologies can work together in a seamlessly integrated system to assemble a product. The Floor to Cloud solution combines hardware components and devices with advanced software to provide detailed handling data, such as per-product energy consumption. The featured products:

Software solutions
Today’s manufacturing facilities require modern automation technology that readily adapts and meets changing production and operational requirements. Success increasingly depends on advanced SCADA solutions that seamlessly integrate diverse systems and assets, often over wide geographic areas, while maintaining robust cybersecurity.
The Movicon industrial software platform delivers the next-generation of SCADA/HMI connectivity and operability through modular, scalable and secure interfaces. The innovative suite of tools includes Movicon Pro.Lean™, which harvests real-time production and performance data to help reduce waste and increase profitability, and Movicon Pro.Energy™, which measures energy consumption and can guide decisions around sustainability and efficiency strategies.
Programmable automation control systems
Industrial operations today need a flexible, scalable and affordable approach to modernization. PACSystems controllers add a new dimension to industrial control and automation, allowing production optimization and monitoring capabilities in the widest range of process and discrete industrial environments.
These automation control solutions bring control intelligence with a realworld approach to identify and predict impending failures, enable proactive maintenance, boost cyber security and customize data acquisition and analytics — so businesses can minimize downtime and handle market changes with agility. Core Emerson automation control innovations include the PACSystems RX3i CPL410 and CPE330 controllers, which offer extensive flexibility for a range of applications, as well as the RSTi EP I/O, which combines powerful controller technology in a modular, compact form factor with a full range of slice I/O to maximize productivity.
Edge devices
Emerson edge devices combine the best deterministic controllers on the market with secure, nondeterministic controllers for analytics and machine learning algorithms to proactively optimize business outcomes. These rugged devices are designed for remote industrial areas and equipped with our vendor-agnostic PACEdge software to safely run nondeterministic applications. This reduces latency and meets all application performance requirements.
