What We Do

Production-Proven Controls & Field Services

From new controls packages to rescuing stalled startups: practical engineering built for real production environments.

PLC & HMI Controls Engineering

We design, program, and support PLC and HMI systems on proven platforms like Allen-Bradley ControlLogix and CompactLogix, built for uptime, clear diagnostics, and smooth field startup.

MDR Conveyor & High-Speed Sortation

Motor-driven roller and sortation specialists: commissioning, performance tuning, and throughput optimization for demanding distribution and fulfillment operations.

WCS / WMS / ERP Integration

We connect conveyor controls to WCS, WMS, ERP, barcode, RFID, and vision systems with routing logic, handshakes, REST APIs, and production-ready diagnostics.

Field Service & Troubleshooting

Rapid-response diagnostics for sensor failures, communication faults, PLC errors, motor and drive issues, and performance problems. When conveyors stop, we get them moving.

System Recovery & Completion

Stalled or unreliable installation? We stabilize and complete conveyor systems left behind schedule: controls completion, startup, commissioning, and performance stabilization.

Preventive Maintenance & Support

Scheduled inspections, system checks, and performance evaluations that catch issues before they become production problems and extend the life of your equipment.

System Down? Project Stalled?

We Rescue Struggling Conveyor Projects

Many facilities are left with partially completed or unreliable systems. We specialize in bringing them into production fast, built so your maintenance team can actually support them.

  • Controls completion and commissioning for abandoned or behind-schedule installs
  • Fault recovery, alarm review, and root-cause diagnostics under production pressure
  • Performance stabilization and throughput tuning to hit rate targets
  • Documentation and training so the system stays supportable after we leave

HMai · AI-Powered Operations Intelligence Platform

An AI-Driven HMI That Explains What's Happening

HMai is our AI-driven conversational HMI for conveyor and sortation systems. Instead of cryptic alarm codes, operators see live system status in plain English, ask the AI questions, and get guided recovery steps that keep production moving.

  • Live sorter topology with real-time zone status across the full system
  • AI fault diagnosis in plain English: why it stopped, what changed, and whether it's safe to restart
  • Throughput trends, alarm breakdowns, and zone risk scoring at a glance
  • One-button SSA Support Bridge that sends live fault context straight to our engineers

OIP · Operations Intelligence Platform

Ditch the Alphabet Soup

Ask five vendors where a WCS ends and a WES begins and you'll get five different answers. The industry hides behind vague three-letter labels while your facility just needs orders released, cartons routed, and equipment running.

OIP is our answer: one platform that seamlessly integrates the execution and control functions those labels gesture at, with lightweight WMS capability where it makes sense. One system, one interface, one support call. HMai is its operator-facing AI.

Built Around Existing Systems

One Maintainable Controls Platform

Most facilities already have equipment, controls, software, and procedures in place. We build practical integration that works with what you have, improving visibility, reliability, and supportability without ripping anything out.

Our Story

Built From Hands-On Field Experience

Sunshine State Automation was built from hands-on field experience in conveyor controls, sortation systems, commissioning, and production support. We know what it takes to bring a system online, recover a struggling project, troubleshoot under pressure, and support equipment long after startup.

Our focus is practical engineering, clear communication, and controls solutions that hold up in the real world, delivered so maintenance teams can actually use them.

"When systems are down or underperforming, we identify the cause and get operations moving again."

We're also developing next-generation HMI tools that combine live conveyor graphics, alarm context, guided troubleshooting, and operator assistance to help floor teams recover faster and understand exactly what's happening.
