Showcased at Maintec 2026, MSAI deepens vibration coverage in collaboration with Broadsens, closing detection gaps on assets where single-sensor programs fall short
MultiSensor AI Holdings has announced expanded vibration coverage in its condition intelligence solution, MSAI Connect, through a new collaboration with Broadsens. MSAI believes industrial operators and reliability teams who leverage multiple sensor modalities can detect more failure modes and forms of degradation across asset types, identify likely causes faster, and act with greater confidence, ultimately driving more efficient and resilient operations.
“Reliability teams in high-throughput operations don’t need more dashboards – they need a faster, clearer path from signal to action,” said Asim Akram, CEO of MultiSensor AI. “When thermal and vibration sit on the same asset in the same workflow, teams can differentiate between mechanical and electrical functions faster and determine when to take action versus when to keep watching. We’re also extending coverage to assets where legacy vibration platforms leave gaps, such as slow-rotating and intermittent-duty equipment, without adding another siloed tool.”
Vibration extends MSAI Connect’s existing thermal condition intelligence rather than introducing a separate program. Existing customers, who purchase and deploy our enhanced vibration solution, gain broader asset coverage inside the workflow they already use. The platform is purpose-built for high-throughput, power-dense, highly automated industrial facilities, where we believe single-modality monitoring can make it harder to identify emerging failure modes. By expanding coverage across more failure modes and critical assets in one platform, vibration detection through MSAI Connect helps close the visibility gap that exposes these facilities to unexpected downtime and lost productivity.
Powering the new vibration capability is a collaboration with Broadsens. We believe integrating Broadsens’ field-proven, industrially certified hardware into MSAI’s unified platform will help reliability teams harness the power of better insights from multiple sensor types on priority assets without deploying a separate vibration program or managing disconnected workflows.
Broadsens’ SVT-V wireless vibration sensors sample in true real time in less than 1 second intervals when machines are running, sample every 10 seconds when machines are in very low vibration or idle, and enable always-listening edge detection[1] that captures threshold-crossing events at the sensor when they occur. This enables teams to catch fast-developing faults and mechanical events that evolve in seconds, minutes to hours, including on intermittent-duty and slow-rotating assets that hourly-sampled systems typically miss.
MultiSensor AI at Maintec 2026
MSAI will showcase MSAI Connect’s expanded vibration capabilities at Maintec 2026 from June 3rd to June 4th at the NEC Birmingham. Visitors to the MSAI booth in Hall 5 can explore MSAI’s full suite of sensing capabilities and speak with the team.
