Rockwell Automation to Showcase Cutting-Edge Process Control Technology at Hannover Messe 2025

Demonstration of new GEA process skid will highlight how close collaboration between four leading companies results in class-leading plug-and-produce technology
DUSSELDORF, Germany, March 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Rockwell Automation, Inc. (NYSE: ROK), the world’s largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, today announced that its presence at this year’s Hannover Messe will include a demonstration of a new separator technology from GEA on the Rittal and Eplan stand – E06 in Hall 11.
Designed for craft breweries and cider producers, the new skid uses GEA X Control, a standardized next-generation control system for centrifuges developed by GEA with help from Rockwell Automation specialists from Germany, India, and the USA. The solution includes Rockwell’s FactoryTalk® Optix™ software, a new cloud-based design suite that not only enhances HMI and data visualization but also creates and strengthens capabilities in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), edge computing, and data management.
Eplan’s software solutions were used to create the separator’s control system as a digital twin, which is connected to the controller and Rockwell Automation’s Studio 5000® design software. Using Eplan’s augmented reality-based eViewAR, the project can be viewed in operation directly at the control cabinet, even with the door closed, for engineering and service visibility and interactions. Rittal also supplied enclosure system solutions to the project, all of which are seamlessly integrated into the digital twin.
“We are delighted to have GEA at our side as a strong and practical OEM partner, with outstanding application expertise,” says Vincenzo Monaco, director of sales, Germany, Rockwell Automation. “Our shared goal is to elevate automation, regardless of the plant size, and to provide competitive advantages for our customers.”
“This project showcases how a digital transformation gives you so many additional benefits,” explains Sean Mulherrin, product manager at Eplan. “Not only can you access digitalized data more quickly, but this data can be fed to and leveraged by downstream applications, such as wiring and building the control cabinet, visualizing the processes, or programing your machine.”
“Plug and play interconnectivity and the module type packaging approach offered by the Rockwell solutions makes our lives as engineers so much easier and faster,” adds Patrick Eickhoff, head of software development at GEA. “Not only can we get to market faster, but our plug-and-produce technologies mean our customers can get to value faster, too. The smart technology also allows us to leverage AI, to get our engineers and customers up to speed much quicker on the latest technology.”
Visitors interested in seeing the process demonstration and exploring the wide-ranging benefits of Rockwell Automation’s technologies and those of its extensive PartnerNetwork™ ecosystem can get a free ticket to the Hannover Messe, here.
GEA, Eplan and Rittal are members of Rockwell Automation’s PartnerNetwork™ ecosystem. GEA as a gold-level OEM and Eplan and Rittal as technology partners. Rittal has recently expanded its partnership with Rockwell into North and Latin America, through the Global Premium element of the Technology Partner Program.

TVP Research Finds Pre-Seed Bitcoin Startup Investment Activity Grows 767% Since 2021

AUSTIN, Texas, April 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Trammell Venture Partners (“TVP”), an Austin-based venture capital firm, today announced the third annual results of its proprietary research on the growth of the Bitcoin-native startup and venture capital landscape. TVP research shows the Bitcoin startup sector continued its breakout category growth trend of forming and investing in new companies, despite the decline in total dollars invested due to the broader venture investment pullback. With a 50% year-over-year increase in transaction count, and a remarkable 767% increase in funding rounds since 2021, the Pre-Seed stage built on its prior years of growth in 2024.
TVP’s analysis indicates that early-stage, Bitcoin-native startups raised nearly $1.2 billion during the 2021-2024 period, based on four years of longitudinal data research.
“One or two years’ data might represent an anomaly, but with four consecutive years of year-over-year growth at the earliest stage of Bitcoin startup formation, the data now confirm a sustained, long-term venture category trend,” said Christopher Calicott, TVP’s managing director. “Many entrepreneurs across crypto are revisiting the Bitcoin stack as the long-term place to build their companies. It makes perfect sense: the objectively most secure, reliable, and decentralized blockchain is the obvious platform of choice, given the increasing capability to build there. And as this wave of early-stage companies find traction, increasing amounts of crypto value will accrue to the Bitcoin stack—a core thesis for TVP.”
The annual release of TVP’s Bitcoin-Native Venture Capital Landscape Research Brief augments the available research for Bitcoin startups. This research aims to support the institutionalization of venture investment for this emerging growth category within crypto and blockchain venture capital.
The TVP Bitcoin startup investment research brief is available for download.
About Trammell Venture Partners
Trammell Venture Partners, founded in 2016, is an Austin-based early-stage venture capital firm investing in Bitcoin-native, security and privacy tech, and applied AI companies. Since 2020, TVP has focused on backing founders building on the layers of the Bitcoin protocol stack via the venture capital industry’s first dedicated Bitcoin-native mandated VC fund series: The TVP Bitcoin Venture Fund series.
