01
Machine & PLC Connectivity
Direct connection to PLCs, controllers, drives, sensors, meters and legacy equipment over industrial protocols — without forcing unnecessary machine-side changes.
Factory Automation
Factory automation, engineered end to end.
Orion Techno Solutions connects machines, PLCs and identification devices to the software that runs the plant — delivering factory automation that goes from shop floor signals to ERP transactions.
Automation Capabilities
Automation across the line, not just at the machine.
Real factory automation is the whole chain — acquisition, identification, control logic, applications and enterprise integration. Orion engineers every link in that chain.
02
Production Data Acquisition
Cycle counts, statuses, faults, timings and quality signals captured continuously, buffered at the edge and made available to applications in real time.
03
Identification on the Line
Barcode and RFID identification integrated into automated stations — gate reads, part verification, label printing and scan-driven operator workflows.
04
MES & OEE Applications
Production transactions, workflow enforcement, downtime reason capture, OEE calculation and operator screens built around how the plant actually runs.
05
Industrial Middleware
Windows services and edge agents handling protocol conversion, message parsing, validation, rules, logging, retries and health monitoring between layers.
06
Energy & Utility Automation
Meter integration, automatic consumption capture, peak detection and period-wise energy reporting for utilities across the facility.
07
Dashboard & Alarm Systems
Live plant dashboards, alarms and reports for production, maintenance and management — turning automation data into decisions.
08
ERP-Connected Automation
Shop-floor events exchanged with ERP, SAP, MES and L2 systems through controlled interfaces with reconciliation and audit trails.
09
Robotics & Line Integration
Coordination between automated stations, inspection equipment, marking systems and supervisory software through defined, tested interfaces.
Automation Architecture
One connected line from sensor to ERP.
Orion operates at the boundary where equipment, industrial networks, applications and enterprise platforms must exchange reliable data. Middleware and controlled interfaces keep that exchange stable — even when machines and systems cannot be modified.

Factory Automation FAQ
Common questions about factory automation.
What does a factory automation integrator do?
It connects machines, PLCs, sensors, identification devices and software so production data flows automatically between the shop floor and business systems — design, middleware, applications, testing and commissioning.
Can you integrate with our existing PLCs and machines?
Yes. Orion works with installed equipment over Modbus, OPC UA, MQTT, TCP/IP, RS-485 and serial interfaces, integrating around legacy constraints rather than forcing machine changes.
Do you build the software as well as the connectivity?
Yes. Connectivity, edge middleware, MES and plant applications, dashboards and ERP integration are delivered by one accountable team.
How does factory automation connect to ERP?
Shop-floor events are captured at the edge, validated by middleware and exchanged with ERP, SAP or MES through APIs and database interfaces — accurate data in office systems, in real time.
Where are you located and which regions do you serve?
Orion Techno Solutions is in Kothrud, Pune, Maharashtra, India, and executes factory automation projects across India for steel, automotive, manufacturing and process operations.
How does a factory automation project start?
With a requirement and site study — process flow, equipment list, interfaces, network and expected output. Architecture is defined before hardware or software is committed.
Automation requirement?
Tell us what the machines produce, what data they hold, and where it must go.
Whether it is one line or a plant-wide programme, Orion will structure the factory automation architecture around the real operating constraint — then engineer, test and commission it.
