Manufacturing

The industrial IoT platform for the plant floor

A bearing runs hot for weeks before it stops the line — and nobody hears it over the noise. Kilo brings IIoT to small and mid-size plants: battery-powered sensors bolt onto the machines you already run, no PLC changes, and every reading becomes live dashboards, alarms, and action.

The plant-floor problems IIoT has to solve

01

The line stops before anyone knows why

Bearings and pumps rarely announce failure. The first signal is often the line itself going quiet — and every hour after that is scrap, overtime, and parts ordered in a panic.

02

Energy waste hides in one monthly bill

Compressed-air leaks hiss around the clock and idle machines draw power all weekend, but a single invoice for the whole plant makes the waste invisible — and unfixable.

03

Machine condition is whoever walks past

Coolant tanks checked by dipstick, motors judged by ear, gauges read on the Friday round. Between rounds, the plant runs on hope.

Manufacturing IIoT FAQ

Can I retrofit old machines without touching the PLC?

Yes. Battery-powered LoRaWAN and mioty sensors bolt onto the outside of a machine — magnet or adhesive mount — and measure vibration, temperature, or energy independently. Your PLCs and controls stay exactly as they are, and MQTT-capable devices connect directly.

Does wireless survive a plant full of steel and concrete?

LoRaWAN and mioty are built for exactly this: long-range, low-power radio that reaches through steel structures and concrete walls. One gateway typically covers an entire plant, and sensors run for years on batteries.

Can rules act on readings, or only send alerts?

Both. The rules engine includes an Execute Command action that commands connected devices when a condition trips. And alarms carry escalation chains — maintenance first, then the supervisor — via email, SMS, and push through the Critical Alerts app.
