Our founding
elliTek, Inc. was founded by Brandon Ellis in 2009. The company began as an automation integration firm with expertise in IoT, factory data management, advanced automation, and motion control. Over time, elliTek became known as a strategic, solutions-based automation company.
In 2018, elliTek began transitioning into a premier solutions-based automation distributor.
Today, elliTek has made its mark in industrial automation by helping customers build complete automation solutions using the trusted products and technologies it represents.
Why?
Why would Brandon start a company in 2009? Inspiration can strike anywhere. For Brandon, his Ah-Ha moment occurred on a plant floor in a rural community in Tennessee. Under much duress, Brandon thought, "Why can't we create a platform that empowers the plant floor engineer instead of continuing to require weeks of complex, custom programming on every project?"
There must be a better way - the Data Commander™ was born.
Brandon invented the Data Commander™ with the end-user in mind. Manufacturing engineers don't need to be data scientists or PLC programmers. A combination of proprietary hardware and software along with the point-and-click nature of the Data Commander™ removes the complexities allowing secure implementation in minutes vs. days or even months.
