Our involvement spans the entire project lifecycle, including business strategy, planning and consulting, project management, process and packaging systems, industrial automation, hazardous area engineering, and digital transformation. This end-to-end capability enables us to deliver integrated solutions that improve operational efficiency, productivity, and growth.

Within the food, beverage and life science industries, we provide skills and knowledge covering all areas of production, including:

Our extensive experience has enabled us to deliver across applications such as liquid processing, powder handling, health foods, warehousing and even automotive parts manufacturing, and we welcome new challenges.

Our team delivers projects including the supply and installation of significant process items such as syrup rooms, CIP systems, water treatment plants, distilleries, large tanks and fully automated valve manifolds. We support everyone from startups and smaller clients to major global brands, with services tailored to any budget.

With offices in Melbourne and Perth, we help businesses grow across every Australian state and into global markets, including Asia, Fiji, the UK, Poland, the USA, and South Africa. Our flexible delivery model combines on-the-ground expertise with advanced remote project technologies to ensure seamless project execution wherever our clients operate.

Automation Mechatronics was founded in Melbourne, Victoria, in 1985 and continues to build on a proven track record from our first project for Spring Valley beverages. Spring Valley was later acquired by Cadbury Schweppes (now Asahi Beverages), and the Automation Mechatronics team managed the plant's relocation in 2000.

We continue to develop our people, delivering world-class large-scale turnkey process manufacturing projects. In 2014 we opened an office in Perth, Western Australia, continuing to provide our services to some of our major customers in the west.

Investing in our people means our experienced engineers can manage entire projects from pre-project planning to implementation, ensuring a seamless handover to the customer with ongoing site support as required.
