Strainlabs System is a Swedish IndTech solution and a direct enabler of Industry 4.0 for mechanical assets. We love it when things come together: Stress mechanics: bolt preload is important for the safety and function of virtually all industrial applications. Micro-electronics: miniaturization of patented led sensors to efficiently measure preload. Wireless communication: efficient radio transmission from bolt to router to receive preload data anywhere in the world. Cloud-data management: Valuable and actionable data for predictive maintenance from day one, enabling AI on accumulated data. ![Strainlabs M16 smart bolt with its built-in sensor seen from the front](https://strainlabs.clearagency.ai/media/mwci4y2n-g0o1ixda.webp) ![Illustration of stress mechanics, micro-electronics, wireless communication and cloud-data management coming together](https://strainlabs.clearagency.ai/media/mwci3buo-izmqga2b.webp) _About Strainlabs_ ### Swedish Engineering for Intelligent Bolt Monitoring Calibration equipment in our Development laboratory in Stockholm, Sweden.
