About MWA Industrial Automation

College roommates, Mike McGinn and Jeff Wilkins, formed McGinn-Wilkins Automation (MWA) more than 20 years ago. What began locally as a controls systems integrator primarily for the Baking and Food Production industries has grown into an enterprise level automation innovator for a variety of industries all over the world.

Today, we specialize in factory automation designing, building, and implementing machinery. From turn-key solutions to creating systems that do not yet exist, MWA will automate your production with 21st Century technology.

MWA also develops custom applications such as power monitoring, centralized data collection from new and existing machinery, and provides remote access that allows our technology specialists offsite connectivity and 24/7 troubleshooting capabilities.
