Integrated automation for your machines

10 November 2025

MODERN MACHINE builders face a growing challenge: almost every project is now a custom design. From layout changes to unique product handling requirements, technical teams must adapt quickly – often under tight deadlines and limited resources. OMRON’s Sysmac Platform was created to meet this reality head-on, helping engineers simplify complexity and accelerate innovation.

Sysmac is OMRON’s integrated automation platform that brings together control, motion, safety, vision, sensing, robotics, and visualisation under one unified architecture. Sysmac enables machine builders and system integrators to design smarter, more competitive systems with less effort.

At its core, Sysmac Studio, the integrated development environment (IDE), allows users to configure, program, and visualise their entire machine from a single interface. Built on open standards and supporting real-time EtherCAT and EtherNet/IP, Sysmac ensures seamless integration across third-party components. Engineers can simulate operations in 3D, validate designs virtually, and shorten commissioning times.

The Sysmac Platform is designed for seamless integration, helping users save time, reduce risk, and future-proof their automation strategy. Its open architecture enables high-speed, vendor-neutral connectivity through EtherCAT and EtherNet/IP, ensuring smooth communication across devices and systems. With plug-and-play simplicity, Sysmac Studio unifies all automation tools into one software environment, reducing complexity through pre-built libraries and open programming standards. Faster commissioning is achieved with built-in 3D simulation and Automation Playback, allowing virtual testing and validation before deployment. Machine builders, system integrators and manufacturers can cut engineering time, minimise setup errors, and achieve a faster return on investment.
