INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION, IN CONTEXT

Spend less time chasing files. Keep your automation system in context.

PLC Autom8 brings electrical drawings, P&IDs, PLC programs, HMI files, and change history into one connected workspace—so engineering teams can understand systems faster, document work clearly, and reduce time lost to debugging.

FROM FILE HUNTTO SHARED CONTEXT

One reliable source for the files, context, and changes behind your automation system.

CONNECTED PROJECTS

Your automation documents, connected

Bring electrical schematics, P&IDs, PLC files, HMI files, and project documentation into one project workspace. PLC Autom8 organizes information around the system it describes—not disconnected folders and file formats.

Organized around equipment and systems
Current source and revision context together
Documents remain understandable across teams

FASTER TROUBLESHOOTING

Find the context behind the fault

Trace a problem across drawings, program logic, HMI behavior, and documentation. Instead of asking who has the answer or which file is current, start with the equipment and follow the context.

Move from equipment to related evidence
Keep findings close to the source

FINDING

The HMI alarm references the same timer changed in revision 18.

AI-ASSISTED GENERATION

Generate PLC logic and HMI displays with a clearer starting point

Create AI-assisted drafts for PLC programs and HMI displays using project context already in the workspace. Review the result, inspect supporting information, and keep engineering judgment in control.

DRAFT → REVIEW → APPLY

Generated work stays reviewable. PLC Autom8 does not present draft logic as verified or deploy production changes without human approval.

TRACEABLE CHANGE

Know what changed—and why

Keep revision history for programs and documentation built around industrial automation work. Compare changes, preserve project knowledge, and avoid losing time to outdated files or undocumented edits.
