Opto Africa soon extended their presence beyond the South African borders and into the

Opto Africa’s primary goal is to provide any information system with its requisite data, even while that data is often regarded as being unobtainable or cost-prohibitive. By using innovative solutions and precision technology, Opto Africa are proud to say that we have never been unable to fulfill a particular information gathering or control task as requested by any of our customers.
During 2001 Opto Africa formed a strategic alliance partnership with companies specializing in the weighing industry, the benefits of which now facilitate the integration of real-world information seamlessly with weighbridges and batching plants for various corporate customers throughout the African continent. This has now developed to include other Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) as plant, equipment (static or dynamic) and intelligent field systems, enabling management to view the status of numerous operations, facilities and activities on-the-fly via the web and internet, obtaining real live information on the spot for company critical management and decisions – wherever they are. “Moving data - not people.”
The backbone and strength of Opto Africa as a company comes from dedicated
management, and a strong technical background in software and hardware, as well as
systems development and essential project management skills.
