Type what's in your panel or on your floor.
Yes. On-site startup, troubleshooting, and commissioning (FAT/SAT) are a core part of what we do, with ongoing technical support after handover.
We're Ontario-based and take on industrial and commercial projects across Ontario.
Yes. Improving, troubleshooting, and extending existing systems is part of the job, on Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Mitsubishi and Horner PLCs and FANUC robots.
A system that's documented and built to be maintained, so your own team can understand it, plus support when you need it.
Safety comes first. We have a perfect safety record with zero lost-time incidents, and we design safe, well-documented systems.

Press Start: the motor seals itself in, the timer counts to 3 s, then the conveyor is ready. Stop or E-Stop drops it out. This is the shape of the logic we write every day, scaled up.

The Activate field manual
PLC programming, robotics integration, and commissioning support for industrial and commercial projects across Ontario. Safe, well-documented, maintainable, by design.
Section 1
Every job is different, but this is the usual order of operations, from the first conversation to the call six months later.
Tell us what you're running, what's going wrong or what you want to build. We'll ask about the equipment, the controls platform, and the timeline.
Controls and robotics design for the whole system, so the panel, the robot and the operator side are planned together, not bolted together later.
PLC programming on Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Mitsubishi or Horner, and FANUC robot programming with path and process optimization. Written to be read by whoever maintains it next.
Prove it works before it ships: logic, sequences, alarms and safety functions tested against what was agreed.
On-site startup, troubleshooting and site acceptance testing, until the system runs the way it should, in your plant.
Documentation you can actually use, and ongoing technical support when you need it.
Section 2
One team, from the concept sketch to the running line.
Design, development, and commissioning, from concept to running plant.
Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Mitsubishi, Horner.

FANUC robot setup, integration, and path / process optimization.
On-site startup, troubleshooting, documentation, and ongoing technical support.
A perfect safety record: zero lost-time incidents. Safe systems start with safe people on site.

PLC programming, robotics integration, and commissioning support for industrial and commercial projects across Ontario. Start with your own numbers.
Example values: change them to yours. Downtime means stops during planned time (breakdowns, changeovers, waiting).
Labour savings only; scrap, uptime and safety gains come on top. A site visit turns this into a real number.
Want a second opinion on these numbers? Send them to us and we'll tell you what we'd look at first.
