PARTS FOR AUTOMATION
Product & Services
Industrial Automation Products, Parts & Components
Time is money. And so by directly supplying customers with off-the-shelf replacements, customized parts and factory reconditioned components, Live Automation can drastically reduce set-up and installation time, which is critical when it comes to getting production back up and running. Sourcing parts, combined with our proficiency in configuring and programming within most control system platforms, you can react quicker and lessen the impact of a down automation system.
A Faster, More Convenient Source for Parts
Many customers set up vendor relationships with Live Automation so that they can have a “one stop shop” for all their components, reducing their requirement to set up multiple vendor relationships internally. Do you need a $200 PLC card but don’t have a relationship with the local vendor? Do you really want to involve your purchasing department, set up a new vendor, wait days or weeks for credit approvals, and then finally get your part?
Additionally, when working with distributors to source your industrial automation parts, the customer is often limited as the distributors are locked into selling only components from their line cards. To provide our customers with more flexibility and convenience, we maintain relationships with multiple vendors to provide the most appropriate, cost effective parts at the time customers need them. And in the case where your original part is now obsolete or difficult to source, rest assured, our technical support team can quickly handle that too.

OEE - Overall Equipment Effectiveness
Automation Skunkworks R & D
Innovation. Speed. Out-of-the-box solutions. It happens often - you have a great idea but don’t know just how to execute it (or maybe you do, but don’t know who to trust to build it.) Every project starts with an idea and you need a specialized team dedicated to making that idea a reality. Live Automation has helped many clients go from concept to production and we can help get you there too.
Consulting & Platform Integration
Modern technologies are continually evolving, making it challenging for companies to keep up with automation opportunities and trends that can keep them ahead of the curve, and in front of the competition. That’s where we step in. As forward-looking control system integrators, we help bridge the gap between technology and your business, especially when you don’t have in house resources or the level of expertise required to take on this critical responsibility.
Field Service & Maintenance
OEE - Overall Equipment Effectiveness
You can’t improve upon what you can’t measure. And having made a large investment in your industrial automation machines and processes, we understand that you want to achieve the maximum return on that investment and have continuous availability of reliable equipment with precision performance. Leveraging OEE (overall equipment effectiveness) Live Automation can help you achieve both goals by uncovering your hidden factory – a place of optimal performance where reduced lead times and improved production quality are realized through OEE calculation.
Field Service & Maintenance
Your goal is our mission - maintaining the integrity of your systems and keeping them operational. From maintenance to management, Live Automation’s professional engineers and technicians can triage simple and complex control system bugs, machine failures and process interruptions. By deploying leading-edge remote monitoring and diagnostics capabilities to quickly identify and troubleshoot issues in real time, we can be there when you need us to help keep your operations running smoothly.
