ESA S.p.A.

About ESA Automation

ESA S.p.A. is an Italian industrial automation company that has been developing solutions for controlling and digitalizing production plants since 1975. The portfolio includes industrial PCs (IPC), operator and monitoring systems (HMI), panel and box computers, servo drives and motors, I/O modules, energy meters for energy management, as well as automated robotic cells and custom robotic solutions. The hardware is complemented by proprietary software such as CODESYS integration, KREO HMI, VTWIN and Polymath, as well as topics such as product safety and cyber resilience. Originally building control devices for electronic antennas and plants in the wood industry and polyurethane foam production, ESA today controls steel processing plants, forges and modern manufacturing environments according to Industry 4.0 principles. The company was certified to ISO 9001 in 1994 and is represented by sales offices and subsidiaries in Spain, Germany, India, China and Italy. Its goal is to make production processes more sustainable, efficient, safer and more digitalized.
