Rockwell Automation Introduces LogixEdge Controllers for Software-Defined Automation

  • Rockwell Automation launched the LogixEdge controller, an industrial PC-based platform combining Logix control with edge computing & containerized application support.
  • The new platform enables manufacturers to deploy automation & software workloads close to production to simplify system architectures & accelerate software-defined automation.
  • LogixEdge controllers bridge operational technology (OT) & information technology (IT) on a common platform, reducing the need for separate hardware while supporting flexible deployment.
  • Using containerized applications, manufacturers can deploy, update, & manage software consistently across distributed operations to reduce deployment time & simplify lifecycle management.
  • Stefano Schiavella, product manager at Rockwell Automation, stated the controllers transition industrial automation from hardware-centric architectures to easier-to-manage software-defined systems.
  • The LogixEdge controller extends the Logix portfolio by allowing control & software applications to run on the same device while complementing existing Logix-based solutions.
  • Rockwell Automation employs approximately 26,000 problem solvers across more than 100 countries as of fiscal year end 2026.
  • Manufacturers can view LogixEdge controllers in action at Automation Fair 2026 or via Rockwell's website & distributors.
