Automation & Control user conference

This event took place 6-7 February 2013 in Aalesund, Norway at the Rolls-Royce Technology and Training Centre

Rolls-Royce has a growing number of Automation & Control systems in operation. It is increasingly important to work closely with our customers and listen to feedback. As a customer of Rolls-Royce and operator of our Automation & Control products and systems, you hold a wealth of knowledge and experience.

Rolls-Royce values your feedback on products such as dynamic positioning (ICON), joystick (POSCON), propulsion control (Helicon-X3) and integrated automation systems (ACON). From an operational perspective you can see what Rolls-Royce should improve.

This Automation & Control conference provided an opportunity to provide your feedback on Rolls-Royce products and influence tomorrow’s solutions. Your participation and experience was essential to the success of this event.

Rolls-Royce presented current offerings and future concepts for Automation & Control and customer training. Major suppliers also presented a wide range of products, both current and future releases.

The objective was to have an open, two-way dialogue between our customers and technical personnel from Rolls-Royce. Our personnel from development, engineering and service departments were available to answer your questions and take on board your valuable suggestions for improving Rolls-Royce products and systems.
