NEWS

At Strainlabs, we're on a mission to revolutionize industrial maintenance. Bolting is critical across industries, yet traditional predictive maintenance often relies on indirect estimates — such as vibration, temperature, or oil analysis. Strainlabs challenges this norm by delivering direct, actionable data enabling a leap forward in safety, precision, and efficiency.

In our latest video, CEO Csaba Madru shares the vision that drives Strainlabs. From the origins of our technology to its profound impact on predictive maintenance in industries like railways, mining, and heavy vehicles, he discusses how our intelligent bolting systems i.e. sensorized bolts are redefining asset monitoring and maintenance.

Key takeaways from the video include why traditional maintenance methods fall short, the breakthrough of preload monitoring with Strainlabs IoT bolts & how our solutions provide certainty in decision-making, transforming maintenance operations.

A system built for precision and sustainability

Strainlabs offers a modular system that includes patented Strainlabs Bolts, Strainlabs Routers, and Strainlabs Analytics—an advanced cloud-based software platform. Together, these components provide unparalleled insights into asset conditions. With the capability to measure preload using light, our system eliminates the guesswork common in traditional maintenance or monitoring methods. Recent achievements include: 

ISO9001 Certification: Cementing our commitment to quality and standards. 

Expansion of bolt sizes to serve new industries and applications. 

Enhanced router protection with IP67 classification, enabling use in even the harshest environments. 

Recent case studies and collaborations: Open list  

By combining cutting-edge IoT technology with advanced analytics, we empower industries to achieve unprecedented levels of operational reliability and efficiency. Whether you’re in mining, transportation, or manufacturing, Strainlabs provides solutions tailored to your industry’s unique challenges. Stay tuned for more updates and partnerships as we continue to lead the charge in intelligent bolting.
