Classic Automation Expands Its Online Catalog With Nearly 80,000 New Parts in 2025
Keeping production running isn’t just a tagline at Classic Automation—it’s the reason we continue to invest heavily in inventory, testing, and technical expertise year after year.
In 2025, we significantly expanded our online catalog with over 74,000 new parts and conditions, making it easier than ever for manufacturers to find the industrial automation components they rely on—whether those systems are brand new or long past their official support lifecycle.
Supporting Both New and Legacy Automation Systems
The newly added inventory spans a wide range of manufacturers, including , Siemens, Omron, Mitsubishi, Baldor, ABB, and many others.
As automation manufacturers continue to release newer hardware and software generations, older product lines are often phased out or declared obsolete. Unfortunately, that doesn’t mean the equipment in the field disappears overnight. Many facilities still depend on these systems every day—and when something fails, downtime can be costly.
That’s where Classic Automation steps in.
Bridging the Gap Between Obsolescence and Uptime
A common example we see across the industry is the gradual phase-out of legacy control platforms like Siemens S7-300 systems. While many facilities are planning long-term upgrades, immediate replacement isn’t always practical or possible.
To support these realities, Classic Automation continues to expand not only its inventory of legacy components but also its technical capabilities for newer platforms, including modern Siemens control families. This investment includes technician training, system-specific test setups, and expanded parts availability—allowing customers to maintain uptime while planning their next move on their own timeline.
Quality You Can Trust—Backed by In-House Testing
Sourcing hard-to-find parts is only half the equation. One of the biggest challenges in the legacy automation market is inconsistent quality, especially when it comes to refurbished components.
At Classic Automation, every part that passes through our facility is handled by experienced technicians and verified using advanced in-house test systems. Components are inspected, repaired when necessary, and tested to ensure they meet strict standards for performance, reliability, and safety.
The result? Parts you can install with confidence—whether they’re modern replacements or legacy components keeping a critical system alive.
Built for the Realities of Industrial Automation
Industrial control systems are designed to last. Our job is to make sure they can.
By continuing to grow our online catalog, expand testing capabilities, and invest in technical expertise, Classic Automation helps manufacturers reduce downtime, extend the life of their equipment, and stay productive—even as the industry evolves.
This latest catalog expansion is just one more step in our ongoing mission:
Keeping the World’s Production Running.
