Factory Automation and General Manufacturing Automation
Eliminate the friction of managing multiple vendors with ELCON’s “one call, one solution” approach. From legacy system retrofits to complete production line integration, we deliver customized automation, electrical power, and 24/7 service to streamline your manufacturing operations.
The Vendor and Resource Struggle
- ❌ Limited internal resources – General manufacturing facilities and midsize companies often don’t have large internal engineering and maintenance staffs, so managing complex automation upgrades can be a challenge
- ❌ Fragmented vendor coverage – Most automation companies can’t cover specialty motor control and medium-voltage power needs, forcing organizations to hire multiple contractors
- ❌ Outdated legacy systems – Outdated legacy systems can be a burden for factories and manufacturing plants, limiting productivity, creating waste, and causing costly downtime
- ❌ Falling behind competitors – Without proactive planning, hardware and software conversions, PLC hardware upgrades, and SCADA system integration, companies risk inconsistent output and falling behind the competition. Routine reviews of future software and hardware needs are often overlooked, causing businesses to miss opportunities for efficiency and long-term improvement.
The Solution: Turnkey Industrial Automation Services
ELCON’s comprehensive turnkey services give industrial and manufacturing facilities a dedicated partner that can handle a project’s entire lifecycle, significantly reducing project management overhead.
Our unique blend of automation, electrical power, and complete turnkey implantation services make us stand out, because most competitors only specialize in one area.
We do it all – the “one call, one solution” for factory automation.

FAQs on Industrial and Factory Automation
Do you only install new equipment, or can you integrate with existing legacy systems?
We actually specialize in both. Whether you need to upgrade existing PLC hardware, perform SCADA system integration, or convert your hardware and software to a new platform, we’ve got you covered. We design flexible solutions that integrate seamlessly with your current operations.
Can you provide support after the installation?
Yes, we’re an ideal partner for midsize companies without large internal teams because we offer 24-hour emergency response and use remote monitoring services via secure VPNs. This lets us troubleshoot and support your systems without onsite visits unless explicitly needed.
Does ELCON handle the physical installation, or do we need to hire a separate contractor?
We handle everything. Our turnkey field projects include the physical installation of equipment, instrumentation upgrades, system startup, and commissioning, and our field operations are fully bonded and insured.
