Choose what to measure.

Select a digital or analog industrial sensor from any manufacturer to capture observations in the real world.

Measure facility air pressure using a pressure transducer.

Measure the condition of a clean room using a temperature and humidity sensor.

Measure production throughput or machine state using a proximity, laser sensor, or an existing PLC output.

Measure motor and electrical loads using a current transformer.

The possibilities are endless.

  • Production Throughput

    Sense the presence of an object to determine part count and production throughput.

  • Dimensional Profile

    Measure the distance to an object to determine dimensional quality characteristics.

  • Air or Hydraulic Pressure

    Measure the pressure of liquid or gas to detect leaks and other pressure conditions.

  • Power Consumption

    Measure electric current flow to determine energy usage, operating hours, or the state of a machine or its components.

  • Rotational Speed

    Measure rotational speed of a conveyor belt or other rotating component.

  • Premature Failure

    Measure the vibration of a machine component to detect and prevent premature mechanical failure.

  • Process Temperature

    Measure temperature to determine optimal process specifications.

  • Oil Particle Monitor

    Mesure oil particle count and size to monitor oil condition and schedule correct maintenance intervals.

  • Label Detection

    Sense the presence of a label to measure production throughput in printing applications.

  • Part Count

    Sense the presence of metal parts falling through the ring to capture part count.

  • Flow Obstruction

    Measure the flow of liquid to determine flow rate and potential obstructions.

  • Fluid Level

    Measure fluid level, such as cutting coolant, to prevent tool breakage.

  • Existing PLC Output

    Tap into your existing control logic signal with ease.

  • Measure Anything!

Help me select a sensor

Ingest sensor telemetry into any software platform.

We don’t lock you into any specific software. The SHARC communicates seamlessly with all platforms due to modern data payload and transmission standards, such as JSON and MQTT.

Kepware, Ignition, Splunk, InfluxDB, Fuuz, Grafana, IoTDB, Node-Red… The list goes on and on.

The time to democratize access to industrial data was long overdue.

Data at your fingertips within minutes.

Manage your SHARC fleet with our iPhone and desktop applications.

Give us a try, other end users and software platform vendors have. They’re all satisfied with how quickly we can deliver insights. Something not easily achievable until now.

We have come to love and hate the Unified Namspace. So we couldn’t figure out what to do besides give our customers a 25% discount. Apply the UNS discount code during checkout.

Expediency and cost.

A customer asked us for two simple metrics.

What percentage of time is the machine utilized?

What is the operating time of the laser?

After consulting with the OEM, the base cost of establishing machine connectivity would be tenfold that of two SHARCs.

The SHARC choice was a no-brainer. We delivered the metrics into their CMMS to assist with optimizing essential maintenance functions.

Integration into existing models.

The SHARC is perfect for supplementing missing sensor measurements and observations into existing device and data models. Because the data is JSON transported over MQTT, interoperability standards like the MTConnect, OPC-UA, and SparkplugB allow direct ingestion of additional data points with minimal effort.

Production behind closed doors.

In classified environments, the SHARC removes cyber security risks. You choose precisely what to measure and nothing more. As a one-way data diode, maintenance plans become data-driven, and new attack surfaces are never introduced.

Simple. Accessible.

Where IT and OT intersect.
