Measure what matters to performance and reliability
Machine sensing and instrumentation
MNC Analytics develops sensing and instrumentation solutions that reveal how equipment, processes and physical assets behave. We help clients determine what to measure, select suitable technologies and turn measurements into information that supports engineering decisions.
We address the full measurement chain, including sensor placement, mounting, signal conditioning, acquisition, synchronisation, calibration and data interpretation. This is essential where environmental conditions, machine operating states or installation constraints affect the quality of the result.
What we offer
9
Define the required range, accuracy, resolution, bandwidth and response time for each measurement objective.
Evaluate vibration, acoustic, ultrasonic, temperature, pressure, flow, force, strain, position, electrical and environmental sensing technologies.
Assess cameras, thermal imaging, depth sensing, laser scanning, LiDAR and radar for inspection, ranging and monitoring applications.
Design channel configurations, sampling, filtering, buffering, synchronisation and communication arrangements.
Develop procedures for checking bias, drift, repeatability and measurement uncertainty.
Develop indicators and alerts for rotating machinery, motors, pumps, compressors and other equipment, taking operating conditions into account.
Measure relevant process variables, structural movement, strain, vibration and environmental exposure.
Combine multiple measurements or estimate difficult-to-measure variables using validated models.
Verify installed performance and establish maintenance, recalibration and sensor health monitoring procedures.
What this enables
Better visibility of asset condition and process behaviour, supported by measurements whose quality and limitations are understood. Deliverables can include instrumentation designs, configured acquisition systems, calibration procedures and operational monitoring tools.

All workVibration and motor-current sensing on gearboxes and main drives, fused with process data, gave maintenance teams three to six weeks of warning before bearing and gear faults.
Strain, acceleration, displacement and temperature sensing with custom acquisition nodes gives the structural engineer a modal and strain history that separates traffic and thermal effects from real change.
