The Wormsensing platform

From mechanical signals to industrial insight.

Wormsensing combines ultra-sensitive sensing, data acquisition and analytics to help industrial teams understand machines, processes and structures with greater clarity.

The platform

From the machine to measured gains.

One chain, end to end: the mechanical signal at the source, Dragonfly® sensors, the connection, the acquisition and the dashboards. Follow it step by step.

It all starts in the structure.

The asset. Wear, friction, overload, a drifting process: every change in a machine first shows as a small mechanical event in its structure. The closer to its source it is read, the earlier and the clearer it is.

Discover Dragonfly®
A Dragonfly® IO sensor.

From the sensor to your system.

Connect. Dragonfly® features an industrial M12 connection for reliable integration with the acquisition hardware.

A Wormsensing M12 cable.

The right acquisition for every application.

Acquire. Dragonfly® integrates with existing DAQ systems, provided their bandwidth, noise performance and processing capabilities meet your needs. When they don’t, we provide a tailored acquisition solution with industrial-standard connectivity, ready to integrate into your setup.

Signal
IEPE
A Wormsensing data acquisition unit.

From raw signal to evidence.

Interpret. Vibration analysis and application-specific models turn the signal into indicators your teams can read at a glance: the health of an asset, the drift of a process, the value of a measurement.

Your teams decide, and the gains are measured.

Decide. The dashboard shows what is happening, and where. Your teams plan the intervention or adjust the process, and the result is measured on the asset itself.

The whole chain

From monitoring to performance.

  1. The asset.

    Machine

    Localized stress, captured in real time at the source.

  2. Sense.

    Sensor (Dragonfly®)

    The piezoelectric sensor captures small strains and mechanical events directly on the structure.

  3. Connect.

    Accessories (Cables & connectors)

    Connection accessories carry the sensor's signal to the acquisition system.

  4. Acquire.

    Data acquisition (DAQ)

    Integrates with existing DAQ systems, or with a tailored acquisition solution ready for your setup.

  5. Interpret.

    Insights (Dashboard)

    Vibration analysis and application-specific models turn raw signals into evidence.

  6. Lifetime extension
    Up to 280%
    Unplanned downtime
    −20 to −40%
    Scrap and rework
    −50 to −99%

    Decide.

    Outcome

    Your teams decide, and the gains are measured.
