Stop unplanned downtime before the line stops

Your floor is a patchwork: a 2008 Allen-Bradley line next to a new FANUC cell, three PLC vendors, and a vibration sensor someone bolted on two years ago. Getting all of it into one screen has historically meant a SCADA integrator, a server you provision, and a 6-to-18-month project that's stale before it ships. So the data stays trapped in islands, and the first sign of a failing bearing or a spindle drawing too much current is a stopped line and a scramble. At a typical line cost of thousands of dollars per hour, the question isn't whether monitoring pays for itself — it's why it still takes a year to start.

• Mixed-vendor PLCs and sensors that don't share a single pane of glass
• Integrator quotes and timelines that dwarf the actual problem
• Downtime discovered reactively, after the line has already stopped
• Maintenance flying blind between scheduled-PM intervals

Sentrel reads the equipment you already run over Modbus and OPC-UA through a lightweight Node-RED edge connector on a gateway you own — a Raspberry Pi, Teltonika, Advantech, or Siemens box — forwarding over MQTT or HTTPS. No proprietary sensors, no manufacturer cooperation, no replacing a working PLC. Set per-reading rules that fire the moment a value crosses your line, not at the next inspection.

• Pumps & motors: vibration, bearing temperature, current draw, RPM
• Compressors: pressure, discharge temperature, duty cycle, current
• CNC & machine tools: spindle load/current, cycle time, RPM, fault codes
• Conveyors, presses & robots: cycle time, motor current, jam/fault states
• Lines & cells: uptime and OEE rolled up from the readings above

Type a sentence like "alert me if pump P-12 vibration exceeds 7 mm/s or bearing temp tops 80C," and an LLM generates the typed schema and alert rules for you. Readings stream in with a tamper-evident integrity hash and a full audit trail, so the same data that warns your maintenance crew also stands up to a 21 CFR Part 11 or quality audit. Alerts reach the right people by WebSocket, in-app toast, webhook, or email; AI-editable dashboards and SCADA views give supervisors live OEE and fault analysis without a redesign. The outcome: you catch the failing bearing days before it seizes, shift from calendar-based PM to condition-based, and start this week on hardware you already own — instead of next year on someone else's server.

• Plain-English setup to live alerts in minutes, not a multi-month project
• Condition-based maintenance that turns surprise stops into planned ones
• Audit-grade, tamper-evident records for quality and compliance
• Scoped API/MQTT keys and RBAC so each line, role, and tenant sees only its own
