Keep your mills running and your mines dewatered
Monitor hot strip mills, runout tables, crushers, conveyors, and dewatering pumps — from the motor control cabinet. Detect failures weeks to months before they stop production.
27 failures detected early at ArcelorMittal, preventing 31 hours of unplanned downtime. 800% ROI in 11 months at Nyrstar. See results ↓

The challenge
Every hour of downtime costs six figures
Steel mills run 24/7. Mines can't stop dewatering. When a roller bearing fails on a hot strip mill or a borehole pump seizes underground, you're looking at hours of lost production and emergency repair costs.
Hot strip mill reliability
Runout table rollers, cardan shafts, and mill motors operate under extreme stress. SAM4 detects bearing wear, coupling degradation, and electrical faults across the full drivetrain.
Submerged dewatering pumps
Borehole pumps sit 150-180 metres deep. Pulling one for inspection costs thousands and takes days. SAM4 monitors from the MCC — no crane needed.
Conveyor and crusher uptime
Material flow depends on conveyors and crushers running continuously. SAM4 detects belt degradation, bearing failure, and motor faults before they halt production.

Simple installation, immediate insights
SAM4 installs inside the motor control cabinet — no sensors on the asset, no production interruption, no confined-space entry.
- Install in the MCC Clip-on current and voltage sensors attach to existing wiring in the motor control cabinet. Takes 20 minutes per asset.
- Connect to SAM4 cloud The edge device samples at 20 kHz and sends data securely to the SAM4 platform for AI analysis.
- Get actionable alerts Receive predictive alerts weeks to months before failure, with fault type, severity, and recommended action.
