About Us
Practical engineering. Reliable control systems.
Machina Automation is an industrial automation and electrical engineering business in Emalahleni, Mpumalanga. We focus on systems that are built neatly, work reliably and can be supported.
Who we are
One team for the whole control system.
Many plants deal with separate electricians, programmers and instrument technicians who each solve their own part. Machina Automation brings electrical, automation, instrumentation and commissioning capabilities together so that the finished system is designed, built and tested as a whole.
Our approach is straightforward: understand what the plant must do, document it properly, build it neatly and test it before handover. We stay available afterwards, because a control system is only as good as the support behind it.
Capabilities
Four disciplines, one accountable team.
Electrical
Panel design, assembly, wiring and installation done to a neat, consistent standard.
Automation
PLC, HMI and SCADA programming that operators can understand and maintenance staff can support.
Instrumentation
Field instruments installed, configured and verified so measurements can be trusted.
Commissioning
Structured testing and on-site start-up so the system performs the way it was specified.
How we work
Principles that guide every job.
Neat, serviceable workmanship
Clean wiring, clear labelling and logical panel layouts make faults easier to find and future changes safer to make.
Documented properly
Schematics, I/O schedules and as-built records are part of the job, not an optional extra.
Tested before handover
Functional testing and signal verification are completed before the system is handed over.
Honest and responsive
Clear communication, realistic scope and support after commissioning.

Our commitment
A control system should be understood by the people who run it, not only by the people who built it.
