Horner Automation
US maker of all-in-one OCS controllers combining PLC, HMI, I/O and networking in a single industrial unit.
Horner Automation (Horner APG), headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, designs and manufactures all-in-one industrial controllers, HMIs and I/O for machine control and factory automation. The company is best known for its OCS (Operator Control Station) products, introduced in 1998, which integrate a programmable logic controller, operator interface (touchscreen HMI), built-in I/O and networking into a single compact unit, reducing the wiring and panel space needed compared with separate PLC and HMI components. The product range spans micro controllers such as the X-series, the XL all-in-one line including the XL7 with a 7-inch WVGA touchscreen, and larger displays, plus modular controllers, distributed I/O and the Cscape programming software. Horner controllers support IEC 61131-3 and ladder programming, dual Ethernet with Modbus/TCP and EtherNet/IP, CAN networking (CsCAN for distributed plug-and-play I/O and CANopen for motion), web serving, data logging to microSD, and remote connectivity.
These controllers are deployed in OEM machinery, process skids, packaging and material-handling equipment, and automation cells, where they coordinate I/O, motion and operator interaction. Operating for more than 35 years as part of the Horner group, the company runs North American engineering and production and serves customers worldwide directly and through distributors. Horner supplies the control-and-HMI layer that runs automated machines and robotic equipment rather than manufacturing robots themselves.
