OT/IT systems integratorEngineering-led

Production-readyOT/IT data bridging.

NovaXtrace designs and ships the PLC, SCADA, and edge-AI integrations that connect your plant floor to the systems your business runs on — architected by engineers who also teach this stack.

Hands-on labLive demo

This is what your HMI/SCADA UI should look like.

Simulate real-world process dynamics by practicing closed-loop PID tuning, level control attenuation, time-series trending, and ISA-compliant alarm configurations on a SIMATIC-inspired HMI panel. Master the foundational control loops and telemetry architectures utilized natively on the plant floor and throughout NovaXTrace automation deployments.

Industrial automation

Design PLC logic, safety interlocks, and HMI workflows that stay readable on the shop floor — then bridge tags into services your team can maintain.

    Interlocks, I/O mapping, commissioning checklists

  • Safety & HMI patternscore

    Operator-clear alarms, acknowledge flows, E-stop hierarchy

  • Edge bridge & serviceslab

    OPC tags to plant-side services and diagnostics

About the academy

Built from the shop floor up.

NovaXtrace comes from industrial automation work — helping teams design systems that are safe, reliable, and easy for their own people to maintain. Learn the same mindset: clear architecture, readable control logic, and safety operators will actually use.

How it works

From stuck to shipped

A simple rhythm that keeps you moving on real systems.

Map the line

Start from how the machine and operators actually work — not a clean diagram.

Learn the stack

PLC logic, HMI patterns, and edge AI in short modules you can finish.

Build plant-ready

Projects sized for commissioning checklists and real handovers.

Ship & sustain

Documented systems your crew can maintain without calling you back.
