Automazioni Industriali Capitanio designs and manufactures tailored automation solutions for the metals and steel industries, with a 50-year track record. The tech stack—EPLAN, AutoCAD Electrical, SolidWorks, PLC platforms (Siemens, Allen-Bradley), and supervisory software (Ignition, FactoryTalk View)—reflects a classic control-systems integrator focused on hardware-software co-design. Active pain points (PLC optimization, plant commissioning complexity, mechanical-software integration) align with current projects around remote assistance and management-system implementation, indicating a shift toward post-installation service and digital-twin readiness.
Automazioni Industriali Capitanio is a privately held automation integrator headquartered in Odolo, Brescia, serving global customers in steel mills, rolling mills, and metal-processing facilities. Since 1975, the company has specialized in designing, manufacturing, and commissioning custom automation systems—both new installations and revamps of existing equipment. The firm positions itself as a platform-agnostic partner, able to retrofit and extend legacy mill control architectures without vendor lock-in. Operations span engineering (majority of staff), quality assurance, remote support, and finance. Current priorities include management-system modernization, safety audits, and distributed technical assistance.
The company uses EPLAN and AutoCAD Electrical for design, SolidWorks for mechanical CAD, and control platforms including Siemens and Allen-Bradley PLCs. Supervisory interfaces run on Ignition and FactoryTalk View. Python, C++, and MATLAB support analytics and vision systems via OpenCV and TensorFlow.
Primarily steel and metals processing, including rolling mills, wire mills, and metal-service centers. The company handles both greenfield automation and revamping of existing mill control systems.
