Industrial Process & Factory Automation

From motor control centre to cloud — one partner for the connected factory.

For process plants and factories, GATA customizes the whole automation stack — switchgear and motor control centres, PLC and instrumentation control, embedded firmware, and the software that runs them. Every line, drive, and sensor connects to the GATE platform, where the Nebras AI Model turns machine data into predictive maintenance, energy savings, and live production visibility across every site.

The challenge

Challenges we solve

Unplanned downtime stops the line

A single motor, drive, or conveyor failure can halt an entire production line, and reactive maintenance only finds the fault after output is already lost. Without live signals from the floor, teams run to failure instead of fixing problems on a planned window.

Motors and drives dominate the energy bill

Motor-driven loads — pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors — account for most of a plant's electricity use, yet many run fixed-speed and oversized. Without metering at the motor control centre, energy waste stays invisible and unaccounted for in cost.

Fragmented vendors and standalone islands

Panel builders, PLC programmers, instrumentation suppliers, and IoT vendors rarely speak the same language, leaving plants with islands of automation that don't share data. Integrating it after the fact is slow, costly, and brittle.

No single view across machines and sites

Production, quality, and maintenance data sit in separate controllers and spreadsheets, so managers can't compare lines, shifts, or plants in real time. Decisions wait for end-of-shift reports instead of live KPIs.

How GATA helps

Our approach

Switchgear & motor control centres, built to spec

We design, build, and test switchgear and motor control centre (MCC) panels for safe, reliable power distribution across the plant — direct-on-line, star-delta, and VFD starters configured to your loads. Use our online configurator to set power, phase, voltage, and starter type and get a priced Bill of Materials in minutes.

PLC control & process instrumentation

GATA delivers the control systems and instrumentation that run your lines and processes — PLC logic, sensors, and field devices engineered to your exact application, with embedded firmware and software we write ourselves. The result streamlines operations, improves efficiency, and reduces downtime instead of bolting parts together.

IIoT predictive maintenance on GATE

Every panel, drive, and controller can stream live signals — current, vibration, temperature, runtime — to the GATE platform, where the Nebras AI Model learns each machine's normal behavior and flags failures before they stop the line. Maintenance moves from reactive to planned, and spare-parts and labour get scheduled on your terms.

Energy & production analytics, one dashboard

GATE meters energy at the motor control centre and tracks production KPIs across lines, shifts, and sites in a single cloud dashboard. The Nebras AI Model surfaces energy-saving setpoints and overload patterns, so you can compare plants in real time and act on data instead of waiting for end-of-shift reports.

The outcome

What you get

  • Less unplanned downtime — failures flagged before they stop the line
  • Lower energy cost from metered, optimized motor and drive control
  • One partner from MCC and PLC to firmware, IoT, and cloud — fewer vendors, faster integration
  • Live production and energy KPIs across every line, shift, and site
