Machine Automation Simplified

Build and deploy custom machine automation in days, not months

Machine Builders Want Control - Not Vendor Lock-ins

We get it - you're caught between overpriced systems and clunky tools.

Control

You want to choose your hardware, build your own software interface, and license it on your terms.

Efficiency

Build exactly what you need, without bloated features. Launch in weeks, stay lean, and keep moving fast.

Independence

You want machines that carry your brand, not your supplier’s - or worse, your competitor’s.

But Building All This
In-House?

Custom Machine Automation Made Simple

That’s why we built TACTUN — the only platform that lets you configure your ideal controller and generate your software with zero coding.

Tailored Hardware Controller

Built for UTM and Fatigue testing machines, our controller is engineered to your specs and branded with your logo – always paired with our no-code platform.

TACTUN Controller

No-Code Application Builder

Create sophisticated Windows applications for your machines without writing a single line of code. Our intuitive wizard-based interface allows you to build custom UIs, implement complex testing protocols, and generate reports.

Our flexible controller and no-code application builder are designed to work as one - giving you full control from configuration to deployment.

Steps to Have the State-of-the-Art Machines

1. Order your Controller

Request virtual demo, send machine spec, discuss your business model and get a quote

2. Design your Software

Design widgets and dashboards, define their functionality, all white-labeled

3. Design your New Machine Type

Define your machine type and all the features of the product

4. Setup Machine, Build Software

Integrate controller, setup customers, build your branded windows application

5. Install Built Software

Sellable machine final setup, standard test method creation

6. Run your Machine

Run your first test method, break your first specimen

Choose Your Deployment

Custom controllers with software rights matched to your deployment. You own purchased physical units and retain your own applications and data. TACTUN retains its controller designs, firmware and platform technology.

Offline End-User Applications

For delivered machines running supported local applications.

A development subscription ending does not stop a fully paid deployed offline application. See our Customer Agreement.

Cloud-Enabled End-User Services

For hosted workflows and connected functions under an agreed service subscription.

Cloud hosting and cloud-enabled features require a valid service entitlement. Future AI features are subject to availability and the agreed service scope.

Frequently Asked Questions

A fully paid deployed offline end-user application retains its licensed local operating rights when the machine builder’s development subscription ends. Cloud hosting and cloud-enabled features require their own valid subscription and can end when that entitlement expires. A separate valid end-user cloud subscription does not end merely because the machine builder stops its development subscription. Your order identifies the deployment, dependencies, notices and safe expiry behavior. See our Customer Agreement.

Deployment changes depend on the application’s supported configuration and a written agreement covering software rights, cloud services, migration, validation and any charges. There is no automatic conversion based solely on paying a controller price.

Yes. You may integrate purchased controllers and distribute authorized applications with your machines under the agreed OEM rights. Branding of end-user applications, controller hardware and the Builder is specified separately. TACTUN retains its proprietary technology and required legal notices remain.

Builder supports unlimited application generation within the Product, controller and feature scope stated in your order unless expressly varied. Authoring seats, hardware, hosting, cloud features and support are specified separately. Your quotation identifies the applicable limits and charges; unlimited generation does not mean unlimited cloud service or unrestricted software redistribution.

Prototype quantities, production quantities and any volume commitment are agreed in your quotation. Selected recurring-production projects may include design in hardware pricing; prototype and production units remain chargeable.

Our FPGA-based controller supports closed-loop rates up to 100 kHz, with even higher rates possible in special configurations.

Yes. Our platform supports complex conditional logic, interlocks, and real-time actions through the Rules and Sequencer interface.

Supported offline end-user applications perform their agreed local functions without TACTUN cloud authorization. Validate the controller, host, storage and recovery behavior for the intended test duration. Cloud-dependent functions require the connectivity stated in your order; an offline license alone does not guarantee an uninterrupted test.

Yes. We support high-speed motion, including applications with 10 kHz sine wave control for rheological testing.

Yes. Integration is possible, depending on the selected controller configuration. Let’s discuss your specific requirements.

Yes. Our wizard interface and Sequencer allow for loops, conditional logic, mathematical operations, and full-stage programming.

Yes. While full DIY support is coming soon, we currently assist with multilingual UIs upon request.

Yes. Simulation features are available to preview application logic before going live.

Yes. TACTUN’s “Product Type” system lets you reuse core logic while customizing UI per customer.

Yes, when delivered as a supported offline end-user application for the agreed machine. Its paid local operating rights continue after a development subscription ends. Hosted applications and optional cloud-enabled features need their own service entitlement and applicable connectivity. A desktop Builder client can still depend on the cloud and is different from an offline end-user application.
