U.S. manufacturer of PLC-based specialty I/O, position sensing, and motion control products for industrial automation, founded 1985.
Advanced Micro Controls Inc. (AMCI), founded in 1985, is a U.S.-based manufacturer of industrial control products that enhance PLC-based automation systems with specialty I/O, position sensing, and motion control technology. The company began manufacturing PLC-based controls in a house in Connecticut, initially designing resolver interfaces for Allen-Bradley PLCs, and celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2025. AMCI designs and manufactures all of its products at its corporate headquarters at 20 Gear Drive, Plymouth Industrial Park, Terryville, Connecticut.
Its product lines span three core categories: Specialty I/O (network interface modules and PLC-based I/O), Position Sensing (resolver-based duplex and multi-turn encoders, EtherNet/IP and EtherCAT absolute encoders, and resolver-to-digital interface modules), and Motion Control (integrated stepper motors, stepper drives and indexers, and motion control modules that plug into PLC racks). AMCI products integrate with major PLC platforms including Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation ControlLogix and CompactLogix, Siemens, and others, supporting industrial networks such as EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, PROFINET, Modbus TCP, and DeviceNet. The company serves industries including automotive and transportation, food and beverage, packaging and material handling, energy and utilities, pharmaceutical and medical devices, and metals and mining, selling through an international network of distributors and sales representatives as well as factory-direct. AMCI provides 24/7 technical support and applications engineering, evaluating system compatibility, installation, and reliability for customers. The privately held company maintains research and development, sales, distribution, and product support operations under one organization and offers resources such as user manuals, sample programs, add-on profiles for Rockwell Studio 5000, configuration files, and a motor sizing tool.
