// controls data, ready for engineering review

PLC schematic extraction.
Tag data in minutes.

Turn electrical drawings into engineer-reviewed tag databases, documentation and draft controls code.

PLC Automator is a controlled engineering-data workflow for controls engineers and system integrators. It reads electrical schematics and produces reviewed tag databases, project documentation and draft controls code — reducing repeated data transcription so controls teams can focus on review, design quality and project delivery.

Source-linked records

Each extracted record links back to drawing evidence.

Exceptions made visible

Ambiguous or incomplete items are flagged for review.

Engineer approval required

The product produces a draft data pack; a qualified engineer approves the final output.

[01]outcomes

More controlled outcomes from the same engineering team

The product does not remove engineering judgement. It reduces repeated data transcription so engineers can spend more time on review, design quality, commissioning readiness and delivery.

Questions about fit? We're a small team and we answer every email personally, usually within one business day.

  • 01

    For the integrator

    More delivery capacity, better repeatability and stronger fixed-price and unit-rate execution.

  • 02

    For the engineer

    Less repetitive spreadsheet work. More time for review, design, testing, commissioning and training.

  • 03

    For the end client

    Faster, more traceable and more consistent engineering-data outputs, with fewer hours spent on manual tag and alarm list building, documentation, and fixing user-introduced errors during FAT and commissioning.

[02]workflow

From control drawings to a controlled data pack

  1. 01

    Define Rules

    Lock in tag structures, naming standards, and alarm conventions.

  2. 02

    Auto-Extraction

    Parse schematics for tag lists, descriptions, and alarm mappings.

  3. 03

    Review Exceptions

    Keep full engineering control by resolving non-conforming items.

  4. 04

    Vendor Export

    Instantly produce clean data packs formatted for your target PLC software.

[03]outputs

Start with the data workflow that causes the repeated work

Tag Data Packs

Auto-generate verified PLC and HMI tag databases directly from drawings, with naming rules, descriptions, source references, and one-click exports formatted for your target vendor environment.

Documentation inputs

Generate turnkey test sheets and verification documentation so your commissioning team hits the floor ready.

Panel & SCADA Mapping

Streamline manual screen configuration (like C-more) with automatically aligned address lists and communication registers.

Flexible Logic & Alarm Blocks

Generate standard code routines and customer-approved alarm logic, scaled to as much or as little automation as the engineer chooses.

PLC Automator does not deploy PLC code, connect to live OT systems or make unreviewed safety/process decisions.

[04]data handling

Your engineering data remains yours

For each controlled pilot, we agree the permitted drawings, processing route, authorised users and retention period before work begins. We process only the information authorised for the agreed workflow.

Pilot material is never used to train AI models, and is not used for public demonstrations or unrelated development without your express written permission.

guarantees
  • Customer retains all rights to drawings and outputs
  • Processing on privately hosted models in our AWS environment
  • No live OT connection, no code deployment, no unreviewed decisions
  • Retention and access agreed before any work begins
[05]

Prove the workflow on an agreed data set

Begin with one defined drawing type and a controlled output. We measure preparation time, review effort, exceptions and output usefulness before proposing broader adoption.
