Wednesday, 28 March, 2012

After a quarter of a century in Blackburn, Rockwell Automation has moved up the road to Bayswater. The company’s South Pacific headquarters are now based at 841 Mountain Highway in Bayswater.

The new $4 million facility provides a customer training centre, a dedicated project engineering staging area and a test and repair facility. The training centre will be used not only for training but also to conduct proof-of-concept demonstrations for clients.
