1xsystemens

1xsystemens is a Swedish technology company that specializes in developing modular and scalable system architecture solutions for industrial automation and data acquisition. Founded in 2012 in Stockholm, the company has positioned itself as a niche provider of redundant control systems for critical infrastructure, including power generation plants, water treatment facilities, and transportation networks.

The core product line, referred to as the 1xPlatform, is designed around open-source principles and supports both proprietary and standardized communication protocols such as OPC UA, Modbus, and DNP3. It emphasizes high reliability and fault tolerance, offering built‑in redundancy features that enable seamless failover in the event of hardware or software failures. The platform is also marketed as a flexible replacement for legacy PLCs, providing a unified software stack that can be deployed on a variety of embedded devices.

1xsystemens has maintained a collaborative partnership model, working with regional engineering firms and system integrators to tailor solutions to local compliance requirements. In 2018 the company secured a round of funding from NordicTech Ventures, which facilitated expansion into the European and North American markets. While the company remains privately held, it has actively contributed to several international standards bodies, particularly in the fields of safety-critical communication and cyber‑security for industrial control systems.
