### OptoPartner Impact Automation invites you to their open house for live product demos and new technical solutions for your automation projects.

If you’re looking for a hands-on way to see automation solutions in action—not just read about them—Impact Automation’s upcoming open house is worth putting on your calendar. 

It's also another opportunity to see first hand what you can do with Opto 22's *groov* EPIC and *groov* RIO products.

Get all the details about this May 14th event—including a chance to win a *groov* RIO ([GRV-R7-MM1001-10](https://www.opto22.com/products/grv-r7-mm1001-10)) of your own! 

Impact Automation is a “One-Stop Automation Solutions Provider” consisting of four Midwest companies focused on providing complete automation solutions: Durkin Equipment in St. Louis; Fluid Systems & Components in Kansas City; Kiser Controls in Chicago, and Process Control Solutions also in St Louis. 

As a valued member of the [OptoPartner](https://www.opto22.com/community/opto-partners/partner?id=52)network, their solutions include:

The Impact Automation team is extending an invitation to all Opto 22 customers and followers to attend an open house at their new headquarters in Fenton, Missouri.

Look for the Opto 22 booth where Regional Sales Manager Jeff Sipe will be available to answer your application questions, provide [*groov*](https://www.opto22.com/products/groov-epic-system) product demos, and give away some cool Opto gear!

There will be free raffles to enter throughout the day for both product and cash prizes. Enter to win a [*groov* RIO MM1](https://www.opto22.com/products/grv-r7-mm1001-10)!

[*groov* RIO](https://www.opto22.com/products/groov-rio) offers over 200,000 unique, software-configurable I/O combinations in a single, compact, PoE-powered industrial package with web-based configuration, commissioning, flow logic software, and the ability to run simple control programs written in IEC 61131-3-compliant languages, plus support for multiple OT and IT protocols. 

Get a sneak peek at how RIO works with our [online RIO Explorer tool](https://www.opto22.com/products/groov-rio-explorer). It helps you select the I/O signals you need, so you can see all your options and a complete wiring diagram. 

*We're looking forward to seeing you in Fenton!*
