Programming, upgrades, and troubleshooting for industrial control systems. Siemens, Allen-Bradley, and open platforms.
SCADA design, data acquisition, and system integration. From standalone HMIs to full plant monitoring.
Panel design, safety circuits, commissioning, and electrical documentation. From single machines to full production lines.
Most of our clients come to us for a specific controls job - a PLC upgrade, a SCADA system, a troubleshooting callout. We get the job done. Then, if there's a smarter way to do it, we'll tell you. Our clients regularly come back because the first job worked and the next conversation got better.
Our lead engineer has worked across manufacturing, mining, water treatment, and R&D. We've programmed PLCs underground, built SCADA systems for council infrastructure, and designed custom test rigs for battery technology companies. Whatever your control system runs on, we've probably seen it.
We're local to the Hunter Valley and travel regularly across NSW for site work and commissioning.
Göran Klingberg
Project Engineer - Renewable Energy
"Gelion approached ControlX Engineering to develop a battery test controller to be used for a custom development project. Alex was happy to provide the specified hardware and software solution according to our requirements, but he also suggested a more cost-effective and versatile open-source solution which would be easier for us to maintain and modify to meet future needs.
Alex and Thisara have an agile approach to system development, meeting milestone targets and being open and flexible to changing requirements. We continue working with ControlX with confidence in their expertise and collaborative approach to problem solving."
