You might not think an electrical automation manufacturer would be involved with developing smart automation to help to mass produce safe and reliable biological products such as human tissues, skin, cartilage and replacement organs. But in an important step toward integrating biomanufacturing science with production techniques, Rockwell Automation announced the opening of the Rockwell Experience Center at the Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute (ARMI) in Manchester, N.H. on June 8.
According to the press release, the new center will help teach ARMI’s members, including physicians and researchers, how to leverage smart manufacturing to scale regenerative medicine products so they can be delivered to more people faster. The center includes equipment from Rockwell, Air Science, Cytiva, Festo, and HID Global.
