Elevate Your Efficiency With Tailored Connectivity for Every Asset
Our commitment to seamless life sciences IoT integrations for equipment redefines how scientific research and manufacturing spaces achieve comprehensive connectivity. Elemental Machines has developed the largest library of equipment integration protocols in the industry, and with our extensive range of integrations — powered by both digital and analog solutions — we help you unlock a universe of insights.
Integration Made Easy
Elemental Machines’ IoT platform collects data from virtually any type of equipment. Essentially anything with an output connection can be connected to our alerting/monitoring dashboard with a “plug-and-play” sensor.
The most common use case: connecting incubators to your dashboard so you have full visibility over all the key factors affecting your science. Wondering about the humidity or temperature? Just connect to the incubator directly, and within minutes, you have all the critical data in the same dashboard you use for everything else. Create alert thresholds, escalation rules, and rest assured that your science is safe.
Digital and Analog Equipment Integrations
The Best of Both From a Single Source
Whether your equipment already has digital communication capabilities or relies on analog output, our innovative approach ensures that every asset is fully integrated into your operational ecosystem. Here’s how our asset tracking system makes both digital and analog equipment integrations a reality:
-
Digital connectivity
Leveraging the world’s largest library of device drivers, we ensure even equipment without native data communication capabilities becomes a part of your interconnected ecosystem.
Our digital integration device is like a Swiss Army Knife with hundreds of options. Each integration creates a “digital twin” so that you have the full picture of your critical scientific operations from Elemental Machines’ dashboard. We do the tedious work so you can focus on making sure everything works as it should.
-
Analog solutions
For equipment with 4-20 mA current loop output, we capture high-quality, noise-resistant data; this approach is invaluable for integrating building infrastructure like HVAC systems or water. Although these systems might have a separate monitoring capability for catastrophic events, integrating these critical environmental conditions into your central dashboard gives you real-time access to critical context specific to your scientific operations.
-
Universal compatibility
Beyond our proprietary sensors, we seamlessly connect with thousands of third-party sensors. Our data science capabilities act as a “Rosetta Stone” to interpret each device’s unique digital output signature so that you can have a single view of all your critical activities on the Elemental Machines dashboard. We even create custom cabling solutions for specialized equipment types.
-
Rapid, hassle-free deployment
Stuff to do? Get started in under a minute with our straightforward setup; our hardware’s design focuses on minimal user intervention, making the transition to a fully integrated system as smooth as possible.
-
Equipment library
Leverage our expansive library of hundreds of predefined equipment integrations to seamlessly incorporate all of your most critical instruments and equipment into Elemental Machines’ IoT platform. Data from incubators, balances, gas manifolds, and more from brands like Thermo Fisher, Eppendorf, Stericycle, Kuhner, Mettler, MVE Bio, Siemens, and others makes the Elemental Machines’ platform a truly comprehensive “Smart Ecosystem.”
