IIOT SOLUTIONS
Industrial IoT
We help industries add smart capabilities to their analog equipment, automate manufacturing processes and keep track of their high-value assets.
Together with IMBU we create engineered solutions that let businesses optimise their equipment maintenance strategies through monitoring and analytics. We help asset-intensive companies gain real-time visibility into how their assets are used, and actionable insight over mission-critical equipment.
Condition monitoring
Identify hidden defects in your machinery in order to prevent unexpected breakdowns.
Predictive maintenance
Predict equipment failures and schedule maintenance before the failures actually occur.
Remote management
Get real-time data from your assets to achieve full asset flow transparency, maximise uptime and increase Return On Assets (ROA).
Asset location tracking
We provide diverse solutions for asset location management, so that you have full control over your valuable machines.
The use of IIoT in the mining industry
One of the industries experiencing problems on a global scale is the mining sector. Falling prices in commodity markets affect asset values and debt parameters. Productivity falls as mining becomes more labour intensive and requires bigger investments. To help you optimise your mining operations we can provide a number of engineered solutions to increase profitability, reduce OPEX and CAPEX, and increase production capacity.
Our portfolio
Dynatec and IMBU have developed a range of ready products which are then manufactured in house. Once adapted, they can be redeployed in other applications or used stand-alone. By modifying and integrating them across projects we deliver faster and at lower cost. Most of our products can be used in hazardous areas, and all of them integrate different communication protocols.
01 · Asset monitoring
Compressor monitoring solution
Howden and IMBU jointly developed the UPTIME system for API 618 reciprocating compressor sets. UPTIME is mostly used on compressors that are indispensable in a refinery process, where downtime often costs hundreds of thousands of dollars per day. IMBU developed the fully hazardous-area-certified plug-and-play hardware kit, allowing quick installation and a very short wire run, along with the server infrastructure and the end-user portal. Howden's fully integrated digital twin is key to performing the automated analytics.

02 · Analytics
High-level location analytics
A question from an OEM building high-pressure pumps triggered the development of the Smart Bolt. The objective was to give large, high-value parts an identity and a location, readable from a distance of up to 50 metres. Location awareness allows operating hours to be allocated on a parts-individual basis rather than a machine-individual one. The time a part spends in each processing area of the workshop is recorded automatically, satisfying QA requirements. In a large warehouse, counting is automated by a periodic sweep in which all available bolts identify themselves. An ST MEMS chip on board allows intelligent analytics — counting how many times a valve opens and closes, among other things.

03 · Air quality
All-in-one air quality lab
CabGuard is an air quality lab, jointly developed by IMBU and Dynatec. It provides detailed data on key environmental parameters such as humidity, temperature, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), fine dust and CO2. CabGuard's design and features make it suitable for all types of enclosed environments — vehicle cabin, supervisor cubicle, guard post, and up to airplane cabins.

04 · Performance
Remote asset performance analysis
Our measurement suitcase includes two transmitters (100% redundant) and two IO modules (fully synchronised). The set-up is self-contained and built into a Pelican suitcase. It can be used for field measurements, temporarily as an option, to investigate machine performance and dynamics. It is typically used on reciprocating machines, as it allows measurements referenced to crank angle.
