At Live Automation, we believe collaboration drives progress. When the strengths of leading system integrators and specialized solution providers combine with your in-house expertise, the result is faster innovation, smarter solutions, and measurable value.

The automation was the one part of our project that I was most concerned about. However, the LIVE team is extremely talented, and the solution they provided to automate our Keyence Vision System was very well designed and assembled.



Testimonials
Live Automation really came through and helped us out when one of our most important machines went down. They replaced the entire control system with updated technology. Not only did it get us back into production quickly, it also gave us more flexibility with the machine!
