The PLC is the heart and brain of industrial automation & control systems. As industrial automation & control systems continue to advance, growing in function and sophistication, PLCs too will have to evolve to keep pace.
Messung offers best-in-class PLCs and automation system components to help you build future-ready systems for diverse industrial applications.
Messung is the pioneer of India’s first indigenous Programmable Logic Controller. Messung was founded in 1981 when the founder began developing a prototype PLC in a humble garage. By 1984, India's first indigenous 1-bit processor-based PLC was launched - and went on to transform industry, replacing the traditional relay contactor logic.
Since then, it's been one continuous journey of innovation and excellence in industrial automation.
Today, Messung offers two advanced PLCs under its Nx-era brand: Nx-era Premium PLC and Nx-era Xpress mini PLC. Let's take a closer look at these feature-rich innovations designed and developed at Messung.
