Industrial Automation & PLC Programming in Barcelona, Spain

Opotek automates industrial equipment and processes: PLC programming, plus custom electronics where standard hardware falls short. That means controllers, motor drives, sensing and operator controls, built for the electrical noise, temperature and reliability demands of the factory floor.

  • Based in Barcelona
  • NDA by default
  • IP ownership: your choice

What does industrial automation work include?

  • PLC programming for machines and industrial processes.
  • Custom controllers and I/O boards for machines and test equipment.
  • Motor drives and motion control for induction and BLDC motors (see motor control).
  • Sensor integration and condition monitoring, including edge AI for predictive maintenance.
  • Operator controls and interfaces, such as haptic BLDC knobs.
  • Interfaces to the control systems and protocols you already use.
  • Test fixtures and adapters for production and maintenance.

PLC or custom electronics?

A PLC with off-the-shelf modules is the right choice for many machines, and we program them. Custom electronics pays off when standard modules can't meet your size, cost or performance targets, when you need sensing or control they don't offer, or when the equipment will be built in series. Often the best answer combines both.

Frequently asked questions

Do you program PLCs?

Yes. We program PLCs for machines and processes, and we can combine them with custom electronics when a standard module can't do the job. Tell us which PLC platform you use.

Can you work with our existing control system?

Yes. We design custom electronics to work alongside the systems you already run. Tell us which controllers and communication protocols you use and we design the interface around them.
