The Real-Time
Control Plane

Turn industrial feedback into rules-based autonomy.

Connects actual production to rules and event automation for immediate action.

What is the Control Plane?

From Production Visibility to Authorized Action

Flexxbotics Control Plane, called FlexxControl in the Flexxbotics Platform, is the industrial software layer that uses actual production context to recognize risks and apply human approved actions before failures occur.

What the Control Plane Does

Enforces How Production Autonomy Runs

The Control Plane applies operating rules to real-time production feedback to detect process deviations, identify downtime signals, trigger escalations, and invoke authorized actions.

It provides the operating foundation for autonomous process control, traceability, prescriptive optimization, and AI-assisted production decisions with human-in-the-loop oversight.

Why It Matters

Control Decisions Before Action Happens

You need complete control and traceability over production decisions that occur in your factories as you introduce greater manufacturing autonomy and AI. Flexxbotics gives your teams the ability to detect, correct, and act using real-time feedback from actual production.

Where It Fits

Works with Your Factory Systems

Flexxbotics does not replace MES, SCADA, PLCs, or machine controllers. It works with them to securely coordinate real-time decisions and actions using data from those systems for closed-loop operations.

THE DIFFERENCE

More Than Alarms. The Ability to Act.

01

Detects

Finds deviation trends, anomalies, risks, and process drift in real time.

02

Corrects

Triggers escalations, approvals, variable updates, and recommended corrections.

03

Acts

Executes authorized actions, captures every event, and feeds results back to improve control.

Automation Engine

Recognizes event patterns, calculates adjustments, and applies human approved updates.

Compliance Traceability

Records and stores all values, events, calculations, and actions undertaken.

Human-in-the-Loop Control

Defines where approval is required and where automation can act with oversight.

Enterprise Capabilities

Built for Enterprise-Scale Operations

Synchronized Edge Architecture

Single data model with bi-directional state sync across every edge node and the control plane.

Centralized Management
