Rockwell Automation Introduces ControlLogix 5590

On October 7, 2025, Rockwell Automation, Inc. (NYSE: ROK), the largest company in the field of industrial automation and digital transformation, announced the launch of its highly anticipated ControlLogix® 5590 controller. This new all-in-one control solution is designed to meet the dynamic demands of today’s manufacturing landscape and is set to revolutionize how industries optimize their operations.

The ControlLogix 5590 is at the core of the Logix platform, designed specifically to help manufacturers tackle the challenges posed by increasing global competition, skill shortages, and rising security risks. Traditional control and data systems are often isolated and based on proprietary technologies, limiting flexibility and keeping costs high. However, the ControlLogix 5590 provides a streamlined solution that enables manufacturers to overcome these hurdles effectively, facilitating control over their operations with ease.

Dan DeYoung, Global Vice President and General Manager of Production Design Control at Rockwell Automation, emphasizes, "The ControlLogix 5590 is not merely an upgrade; it is a cornerstone for the future of industrial automation. We are empowering our customers to build smarter and safer systems, with a platform designed for current needs and future scalability."

Key Features of ControlLogix 5590

• - Integrated Safety: Each ControlLogix 5590 controller includes advanced integrated functional safety features, protecting both employees and equipment. There is no need for separate safety models, allowing for compliance with stringent global standards and enabling customers to develop safer systems more efficiently and reliably.

• - High Performance: The controller supports high-speed processing with expanded memory capacity to manage complex processes. From process and batch control to discrete, axis control, and robotics applications, the ControlLogix 5590 is ideally suited for manufacturers aiming to design scalable architectures, optimize throughput, and enhance efficiency.

• - Integrated Cybersecurity: This controller incorporates security features that protect against both current and future cyber threats. Adhering to global standards (IEC 62443), these measures foster connected operations that comply with modern security requirements.

• - Optimized Engineering Experience: A unified software suite, including Studio 5000 Logix Designer® and FactoryTalk® Design Studio™, streamlines development, accelerates deployment, and simplifies workflows across the enterprise.

Craig Resnick, Vice President of Consulting at the ARC Advisory Group, notes, "Manufacturers today require control platforms that fulfill performance and safety demands without complicating operations. Solutions that combine high-speed processing, integrated safety, and robust cybersecurity into a single architecture enable companies to modernize more efficiently, ensure operational continuity, and improve operability."

The ControlLogix 5590 controller will be showcased live at the Automation Fair taking place from November 17 to 20 in Chicago. Interested customers can also visit the Rockwell Automation website for more information about this cutting-edge technology.
