AutomationDirect offers direct sales in the United States and Canada only. If you are located in another nation, you will need to direct your inquiries to the distributor nearest to you.

AutomationDirect®, originally founded as PLCDirect in 1994, has grown quickly from a small PLC company to a well-recognized name in the industrial automation market. The company offers over 7,000 name-brand and private label automation products including PLCs, operator interfaces, AC drives and motors, motor controls, sensors, pushbuttons, electrical enclosures, wire duct, fuses and more, through a 2,000-page catalog and an e-commerce superstore.

As the first industrial controls company to successfully use a direct sales model, AutomationDirect is able to pass savings on to customers at prices well below the industry average. Shopping by phone, fax, or online is easy, and in-stock items ordered by 6 p.m. ET are shipped the same day (with approved credit). Ground shipping on orders of $300 or more is free. Customer service reps and technical support staff are available to take orders, answer questions or troubleshoot problems from 9-6 p.m. weekdays, ET.

AutomationDirect’s ability to sell high-technology automation products for very low prices relies on strategies employed to reach customers and the efficiencies inherent in the plant operation. The headquarters facility in Cumming, GA (30 miles north of Atlanta) is the sole location in the United States and is designed throughout for maximum performance. For example, the installation of a PC-based control system and bar code identification equipment in their warehouse has resulted in an order shipping accuracy of 99.98 percent.

In addition to quality products and low prices, AutomationDirect is noted for its outstanding service. Customers have rated their tech support team as top-notch, year after year. Readers of Control Design magazine voted AutomationDirect #1 in service and support in various product areas for 2001-2007. Customer commitment is backed by a 30-day, money-back guarantee on nearly all items, including software.

AutomationDirect works hard to provide quality automation products at affordable prices and to provide the best customer service possible.
