Maintenance Technology Systems, LLC (MTS)
At Maintenance Technology Solutions we are making predictive maintenance solutions available to every business through innovative machine health monitoring. Any change to the internal workings of a machine will result in a change to its vibrational behavior. These subtle changes can be detected and used to determine what maintenance should be performed and when it should be completed. Since 2006, we have been simplifying vibration data collection technology, with the goal of making it available for everyone. One way we do this is by offering our own expertise in performing testing and analysis.

Foresight Data Machines
Foresight Data Machines builds AI systems for heavy industry. We specialise in domains that deal with heterogeneous input feeds, where material flow is difficult to measure. Think of secondary metal making, mineral processing or battery recycling, where different grades of input feed, like scrap or mineral ore, are moved via cranes and mobile loaders and blended before processing. Material inputs greatly affect downstream processes, but the combination of uncertain quality and manual handling creates a fundamental visibility gap, forcing operators to rely on coarse estimations and suboptimal rules of thumb when making process decisions.
