Mobile Automation is based in Montrose. Not "servicing" Montrose from somewhere else — headquartered here, at Factory 30, 65–67 Canterbury Rd, Montrose VIC 3765. Our electricians, automation engineers, fitters and service vehicles start their day in this suburb.
That matters when something stops. A Montrose business calling us isn't waiting on a truck coming out from the city or the south-east; it's waiting on a crew that's already local. We've operated as a Registered Electrical Contractor since 1987 (REC 8904), and the whole business — industrial electrical, automation and engineering, robotics and mechanical services — runs from this one address.
The workshop is part of that. Control cabinet build, panel wiring and mechanical fabrication happen on site at Montrose, which means a fabricated bracket, a modified guard or a custom control panel doesn't sit in a queue at a third party. For a local site, that's often the difference between a same-week fix and a three-week lead time.
Electrical, automation and mechanical — one local team
- Breakdown response and fault finding — including emergency support by arrangement
- Switchboard upgrades and electrical project works, ESV-coordinated
- Electrical maintenance and preventative programs
- Machine installations and VSD & motor control
- PLC programming, SCADA and machine safety to AS/NZS 4024
- Robotic solutions and mechanical services — the rest of the one-stop shop
Control panels are designed and built in our own facility — see control cabinet design and manufacture — and we also offer remote support and diagnostics for sites running PLC, HMI or SCADA control.
Why Montrose businesses call Mobile Automation
Being down the road is the obvious reason, but it isn't the only one. We're a Registered Electrical Contractor with Special Class and A-Grade electricians, in-house automation engineers, and a mechanical workshop under the same roof — so one contractor is accountable for the whole plant rather than three trades pointing at each other.
Because the workshop, the fabrication bay and the fleet are all here, a job that needs a part made, a panel modified and an electrician on site can be coordinated in a single conversation. There's no mobilisation from another depot and no third-party fabricator in the middle of it.
Beyond Montrose
From here we cover the eastern corridor and the rest of Melbourne. Neighbouring areas include Kilsyth, Bayswater, Croydon and Lilydale — all within a short run of the workshop.
