CTT Returns to PACK EXPO Las Vegas

Center for Trends & Technology at PACK EXPO Las Vegas focuses on improving productivity, efficiency and agility.

The Center for Trends and Technology (CTT): Improving Production Through Innovation at PACK EXPO Las Vegas and Pharma EXPO 2015 (Sept. 28–30; Las Vegas Convention Center), includes five members of sponsor Rockwell Automation’s PartnerNetwork™ Program, according to show owner and producer PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies.

CTT (Booth #C–4829) is a PACK EXPO-exclusive educational feature that uses a series of displays and seminars to address critical issues around productivity, sustainability, agility and other key components of manufacturing success. Rockwell Automation PartnerNetwork participants including Cisco Systems, Grantek Systems Integration, Interstates Controls, Microsoft, and Stone Technologies will bring their expertise to this year’s edition of CTT.

“The speed at which automation technologies change makes staying abreast of developments in hardware, software and industry drivers absolutely critical. It is challenging, however,” says Cheryl Lange, Commercial Program Manager, Rockwell Automation. “Our goal for CTT is for every attendee who visits to leave with a new understanding of what’s available and how their choices affect their operations.”

“CTT is about ideas, innovation and insight,” adds PMMI President & CEO Charles D. Yuska. “It focuses on the latest advances to improve production, the forces driving change and what it all means to manufacturers. This is critical knowledge for anyone hoping to improve productivity and efficiency.”

PACK EXPO Las Vegas, and the co-located Pharma EXPO, which PMMI co-produces with the International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE), will host more than 2,000 exhibitors and 30,000 attendees in 800,000 net square feet of exhibit space. Registration and show details are online at Packexpolasvegas.com and Pharmaexpo.com. Registration increases from $30 to $100 on Sept. 14.
