Strainlabs Bolts
Connect an unlimited amount of preload sensing IoT bolts using patented LED-sensor technology to measure preload.
Strainlabs Routers
Pre-configured routers to receive and upload data results from Strainlabs Bolts to Strainlabs Analytics.
Strainlabs Analytics
Enables remote monitoring and alerts for Strainlabs Bolts. Aggregates quantifiable and actionable data.
Sensor-equipped bolts
Data output from Industrial IoT sensors struggle to be actionable and efficiently integrated with existing maintenance setup and processes. Across industries manual bolt torque inspections are commonly performed due to regulations, praxis, or law requirements.
Strainlabs System allow the oldest machine – the bolt – to become the sensor which gives asset owners increased control over asset condition, as well as custom alerts before a functional failure occurs. Strainlabs Bolts has been examined and CE-marked by the independent certification body Intertek.
Remote preload sensing and monitoring also allows for increased safety and productivity for maintenance teams.
- Calibrated bolt preload data with thermal compensation & temperature data
- Instant installation feedback – ensure that the correct preload achieved from installation
- Preload inspection every 10 minutes in active mode (reduced interval when below 0ºC)

Once the battery is discharged, Strainlabs IoT bolts can either remain in the joint (function as a traditional bolt) or be replaced. Strainlabs bolts are recyclable, just dismantle the PCBA from the metal parts and the battery is easily removed from its clip. Recycle separately the electronics, the battery and the steel / stainless steel.
