Rockwell Automation partners with Sri Lanka's Ceylon Can Manufacturing to install its Plex Manufacturing Execution System. This marks Rockwell's first such installation in the Indian subcontinent's Consumer Packaged Goods sector. The system will enhance production efficiency and support Ceylon Can's expansion in the region.

Rockwell Automation, the world's largest firm specializing in industrial automation, has announced a strategic collaboration with Sri Lanka's Ceylon Can Manufacturing. This partnership aims to implement Rockwell's cloud-based Plex Manufacturing Execution System (MES), facilitating Ceylon Can's evolution towards digital manufacturing.

This deployment marks Rockwell's inaugural installation of the Plex MES in Sri Lanka and within the Consumer Packaged Goods sector of the Indian subcontinent. Ceylon Can plans to expand by establishing new facilities in India, and this initial site will play a vital role in their digital transformation strategy.
