Integrated automation and electrical engineering for plants that can't stop

Since 1999, Authomathika has been a reference in engineering for the sugar-energy sector. We work across all areas of the plant — fermentation, distillery, boiler, cogeneration and sugar factory — with integrated automation, electrical and electromechanical assembly solutions.

Industry challenges

Hiring separate suppliers for electrical design, panel manufacturing and installation multiplies errors and delays

Outdated automation systems increase energy consumption and slow down operations

An integrator without process knowledge makes costly mistakes during harvest

The off-season is short and any delay puts the next harvest at risk

Field assembly done by inexperienced third parties leads to rework, delayed startup and labor liability risks

How Authomathika solves it

Authomathika designs, manufactures and installs new electrical panels, MCCs, LV switchboards and automation panels, under a single contract

PLC and SCADA replacement with planned migration without stopping the plant

Authomathika develops the Master Plan and knows 100% of the process, from milling to the end of the full process

Off-season execution with advance planning and in-house teams already mobilized

In-house assembly team with proven experience in sugar-energy plants
