SPEED
There’s nowhere to go but up in the electric vehicle (EV) market. It’s estimated that nearly 6 out of every 10 new vehicles sold by 2040 will be electric.
Whether you’re an EV start-up or established automaker, you’re starting in the same place, with a challenge of turning an EV concept into a road-ready offering.
To be productive and stay competitive, you need connected, information-driven operations to produce vehicles as rapidly as possible, with the lowest possible cost and risk. And you need agile production systems that allow you to quickly and effortlessly pivot if demand or technology changes.
If you’re an EV battery maker, you have the tremendous challenge of delivering enough power for the world’s growing volume of EVs. Accomplishing this requires operations that can:
•Maximize battery production rates to meet exponential demand growth.
•Use track-and-trace capabilities to consistently deliver high-quality, safe batteries.
•Adjustontheflytokeepupwiththerapidevolutionof battery technology.
As you build a giga-scale production plant to meet demand, you need a smart and scalable production strategy that allows them to build for growth from the start.

Win the race to market
To meet demand and get in front of growing competition, you need to get your electric vehicles (EVs) to market quickly and at the lowest possible cost.
LAUNCH FASTER
Rediscover what’s possible at the launch stage and accelerate your manufacturing plans by working with a partner that gives you a depth of expertise and breadth of thinking.
Rockwell Automation launchand program-management teams can help you develop your manufacturing plans in a way that reduces time and risk. They can provide consultation and design support for factory production planning. They can also reduce the risk of startup delays and align all areas of your plant by helpingyoudevelopcorporatecontrolstandardsandspecifications–andthen help enforce those standards with OEMs or other suppliers.
CONNECT MORE EASILY
Build out your infrastructure in faster and simpler ways with the technologies like an Industrial Data Center (IDC).
Deploying a server rack can be a hassle, requiring that you work with several vendors to build and support it. An IDC can help simplify server deployment in your plant with a virtualized environment. The IDC provides compute, storage and multi-layer network switching for all your applications in a pre-engineered and validated package.
The high-quality data required for smart operations is only possible with strict adherence tospecificationsand seamless integration of plant-floorequipment.

The connected EV factory
Connected from mine to dispatch bay, a Rockwell Automation connected EV factory launches faster, for less cost, with less risk – and achieves optimized production to the fastest possible timescale.
It starts with smart connected assets, connected to an EtherNet/IP™-enabled network.
On top of this foundation is our Integrated Architecture® automation infrastructure. It replaces multiple disparatecontrolsystemswithonecommonframeworktomaximizeefficiencyandproductivity.It allows you to use one software platform to program controllers, one protocol to seamlessly send data acrossdifferentnetworksandonesoftwarepackagetoconfigureallyourgraphicsdisplays.

IN FOCUS: Simulation software
An information solution like our Emulate3D™ simulation software can speed up launches and reduce start-up risks by using the power of your own machine data. The software uses a digital twin, or digital replica, of a machine to prototype and test machines before they’re built. This can help you identify issues in the design stage and optimize machines.
Then, as your launch date nears, the software can help you avoid costly changes and keep the launch on track with virtual commissioning. This involves synchronizing a machine’s model to its controller to validate and debug the machine before it’s commissioned.
BUT IS IT SECURE?
Security is a top priority in connected plants. We can help you implement security in a layered and holistic way to help protect your intellectual property
and your plant uptime.
