Our take
Across the manufacturing industry, lost production time equates to over $1 trillion of lost revenue each year. Much of this is due to foreseeable errors in machinery, many of which could have been fixed before they broke. AssetWatch, previously known as Nikola Labs, works with manufacturing companies to reduce unplanned downtime in their machinery and technology.
Focused on discovering machinery faults before it is too late, the company's wireless vibration sensors connect to a team of certified vibration experts who leverage machine learning to analyse the data. Hence, its prescriptive and predictive maintenance alerts signal potential faults before failure occurs, thus reducing potential downtime from these machinery faults.
With a wide range of solutions spanning software to IoT, AssetWatch appeals to everyone from factory managers to leadership teams, giving everyone a comprehensive overview of manufacturing health. The company has enjoyed significant funding of over $170 million so far, and has enjoyed substantial growth since its founding in 2014. It plans to continue expanding and scaling up the business.
