Square Wave
Systems
Modern software solutions for niche problems in industrial automation.
We bridge the gap between cutting-edge development and factory floor reality.
What We Do
Modern software engineering for industrial automation. Version control, CI/CD, DevOps, open source, open standards. No vendor lock-in.
Custom Engineering Tools
Engineering tools that bring DevOps to industrial automation. Version control, code generation, CLI utilities.
Web/Cloud/IIoT Integration
Shop floor to cloud. We bridge industrial protocols with modern APIs using robust data pipelines.
Simulation & Digital Twins
3D simulation and digital twins built by engineers who know the stack inside out. Browser, desktop, or headset — we ship what fits.
What We're Building
Smactu
Modern development for Omron PLCs
A VS Code extension for Omron Sysmac projects. Git version control, bring-your-own AI tools, and simulation — using the tools modern developers already know.

Bespoke real-time dashboards for industrial data. Connect to PLCs, sensors, and databases. Visualise what matters to your operation.
Learn more →Factory Planner
A lightweight, browser-based tool for sketching factory floors. Rapidly prototype layouts and visualise machinery placement in real-time.
Learn more →Open Source
We believe in giving back to the engineering community. Our open source tools are freely available on GitHub.
opcilloscope
A lightweight, cross-platform OPC UA client for the terminal. Browse, monitor, and visualize industrial data with a real-time oscilloscope view. Keyboard + mouse friendly. No bloated GUI, no license fees.
View on GitHubOur Philosophy
We believe manufacturers should own their automation data, not rent access to it.
Industrial automation is plagued by vendor lock-in: proprietary file formats, closed ecosystems, expensive licensing. We're building the alternative.
Square Wave Systems is a small, focused software studio based on the Gold Coast, Australia. We combine deep domain expertise in industrial automation with modern software engineering — open standards, version control, and tools that work with your workflow, not against it.
-
No Vendor Lock-in
Open standards, open formats. Your projects live in Git, not proprietary binaries. You can leave anytime and take everything with you.
-
Modern Tools
VS Code, Git, CI/CD — the same tools 73% of developers already use. Not legacy IDEs and vendor-specific platforms.
-
Niche Focus
We solve specific automation problems exceptionally well. We don't try to be SCADA or an ERP.
