Left quotation mark
Live Automation has been able to fill a critical need for specialized PLC and controls expertise at our site. Our first experience with Live was an emergency service call on our high speed production line. Live had an engineer on-site within hours and had the line back up and running 15 minutes later. Since then, Live has installed VFD upgrades, PLC programming changes and has consulted on our controls migration plan.
