— 01 / Capabilities

Engineering across the stack.

Industrial automation is our core. Proven across pulp & paper, automotive, food, and refining. The studio extends that depth into software, AI, and the systems that connect them.

01

Industrial Automation

PLC & HMI, electrical schematics, commissioning. TIA Portal, CoDeSys, RSLogix.

02

Software & AI

Custom software and AI agents built into the workflows people actually run.

03

Systems & Integration

Data, infrastructure, and the connections that turn separate machines and applications into one working system.

04

Strategy & Architecture

Advisory work: frameworks, decision support, technical leadership.

— 02 / Method

Built inside, grown outward.

We start where the work happens: on your line, in your systems, inside your data. What we learn there gets built in, and what we build keeps improving as it runs.

01 — Embedded

Inside your systems

We start on your floor, not in a proposal. Your team, your systems, your constraints.

02 — Codified

Expertise in the build

Every decision ends up in code, schematics, and documentation you keep. Nothing leaves when we do.

03 — Compounding

Designed to grow

Systems that learn from production, not demos: real shifts, real data, real edge cases.

— 03 / Engagements

Three ways to work together.

We choose clients by ambition, not industry. Founders and established teams alike. You work directly with the engineer who builds it, not a vendor at a distance.

— 04 / FAQ

Common questions.

Tekr is an industrial automation and AI engineering studio in Kalmar, Sweden. We program PLCs and HMIs, design electrical systems and commission them on site, then extend that depth into custom software and AI agents embedded in real workflows.

Expert-level in Siemens TIA Portal and WinCC; experienced with CoDeSys, Rockwell RSLogix 5000, Mitsubishi GX Works2, Wonderware InTouch and iFIX SCADA. Plus Siemens Motion Control and robot-cell integration (ABB, Yaskawa).

Based in Kalmar, serving Sweden and the EU. We work across manufacturing and process industry and choose clients by ambition rather than sector. Founders and established companies alike.

Three ways: a bounded Project build, a long-term Embedded partnership, or Advisory: strategy and architecture without owning the build. We work inside your team and your data, on site when the work needs it.

It depends on current engagements. Write to us and you'll get a straight answer within one business day. If we can't take the work on, we'll say so.

Both. Automation work usually starts on site, since commissioning happens at the machine, while software and advisory can run remote or hybrid. Based in Kalmar, working across Sweden and the EU.

The judgement behind the build stays in the build: in code and documentation your team keeps. And the systems we design improve as they run.
