Elektroautomatik

What Elektroautomatik does

Elektroautomatik is Sweden's largest independent automation integrator, founded in 1965 in Skövde by Åke Sjöberg and now headquartered in Göteborg, Sweden. The company provides turnkey industrial automation solutions spanning the full lifecycle from concept study and design through construction, installation, and commissioning, serving enterprise customers across manufacturing, automotive, food, medical technology, logistics, and wood/paper verticals. Its core offerings include custom robot cells, assembly lines, and special machines integrating robotics (primarily ABB), PLC control systems, vision systems, and machine tools; automated guided vehicles (AGV) and autonomous mobile robots (AMR) via the Mobile Robotics unit; and machine sales through exclusive agencies for Makino, NILES-SIMMONS, and CMZ.

Revenue is generated through a mix of project-based professional services (automation projects, consulting, training priced at 7,750 SEK per person), hardware sales (AGV/AMR systems, machines), and recurring service contracts (maintenance, spare parts, Robot Service+). Proprietary technology includes the EA Vision Studio (in-house vision inspection software developed 2009) and Virtual Commissioning with VR integration. Distribution combines direct enterprise field sales, exclusive agency partnerships, and event-driven engagement at trade fairs such as Elmia Automation and AMB Stuttgart. The company operates from four Swedish locations and is privately held by Storskogen following a 2019 acquisition, with Fredrik Granlund as CEO since 2025.
