Case Study · 02 — Foresight

The cut tells the truth.

An example of how vibration data, listened to carefully, replaces guesswork with precision in metal manufacturing.

Real-time prediction Retrofit-ready Brand-agnostic

01 — The status quo

Today's standard is the same one we used in 1970.

Fixed-time
Truth

30–50% of every tool is thrown away.

02 — The signal

Listening at the rate of physics.

Cut 001 / 200
Wear 0.05
Channels x · y · z
Sample rate 50 kHz

03 — The prediction

Wear, predicted before it happens.

Predicted wear 0.05
Threshold 0.30
Confidence high
Update real-time

04 — The decision

Two ways to change a tool.

Mid-cut breakage prevented.

Fixed-time · cut 130
Foresight · cut 187
Tool spend reduced 30–40%

05 — The outcome

A tool changed at the right moment, every time.

Tool spend
0
premature changes eliminated

Pre-pilot. Validated against industry-standard benchmarks; performance in line with leading research. Production validation begins with first pilot installs.

A worn tool used to be a problem. Now it's a prediction.
