Rotork, a global flow control and intelligent actuation solutions provider, announced its official entry into the Rockwell Automation Technology Partner Program. This collaboration marks a significant step in expanding Rotork’s presence within the industrial automation landscape.

As part of the partnership, Rotork’s IQ3 Pro electric actuator with EtherNet/IP connectivity will be featured in Rockwell Automation’s Technology Partner product reference catalog and system design tools. This integration will make it easier for engineers, system integrators and end users to specify Rotork’s advanced actuation solutions in a wide range of industrial applications.

“We’re proud to be joining Rockwell Automation’s Technology Partner Program,” said Andy Filkins, global head of business development. “This collaboration enhances the visibility of our Ethernet-enabled IQ3 Pro actuator and supports our commitment to delivering smart, connected solutions to customers around the world.”

The partnership spans North America, EMEA and APAC, aligning with Rotork’s global footprint and enabling closer alignment with Rockwell’s regional teams and customer base.

While the IQ3 Pro is the first product to be listed, Rotork anticipates expanding its presence in the Rockwell partner network as additional products in its portfolio become Ethernet-compatible.

This partnership reflects Rotork’s ongoing investment in digital innovation and its mission to support customers with intelligent, reliable and future-ready flow control technologies.
