Controllino MAXI Open-Source Industrial PLC

The Controllino MAXI from Industrial Shields, a Boot & Work subsidiary, is a robust, industrial-grade programmable logic controller (PLC) designed to bring flexibility, openness, and cost effectiveness to automation systems. Fully compatible with the Arduino IDE and hardware ecosystem, it enables rapid prototyping, custom logic development, and integration into legacy or modern control systems. With modular I/O and support for extended connectivity, the MAXI bridges the gap between hobbyist platforms and industrial control.

Built for reliability and durability, the MAXI runs in harsh environments and supports both 12 V and 24 V DC power. Its modular expansion capability means users can scale from small control tasks to more complex machine automation without switching platforms. Whether as a standalone controller or a node in a distributed architecture, it offers a powerful balance of openness and industrial readiness.
