Solutions for Automation & Controls Engineers
Clean Code. Clear Architecture. Systems Built by Engineers.
As an Automation or Controls Engineer, you need systems that are logically structured, well documented, and technically sound. Poor code quality and inconsistent standards make upgrades, fault finding, and integration unnecessarily difficult.
​
Stratos Control Systems delivers engineering-led automation solutions focused on clean code, consistent architecture, and long-term supportability.
Automation Built to Engineering Best Practice
We design automation systems engineers want to inherit, not avoid.
​
Our focus includes:
-
-
Structured PLC programming
-
Consistent HMI standards
-
Scalable SCADA architecture
-
Clear documentation and version control
-
Common Challenges for Automation Engineers
- Poorly written PLC code
-
Inconsistent HMI layouts
-
Limited diagnostics
-
Difficult integration with legacy systems
-
Lack of standards across machines
