The high-performance rope and cable space has virtually no digital infrastructure despite widespread mission-critical use across many industries. While tension members are part of other heavily digitized systems, they remain a blind spot with limited innovation and solutions to deliver in-use data and leverage the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Knowix is transforming the space by delivering whole system digitization through sensor hardware and software platforms with proven performance and scalability. With Knowix, companies can understand the past, view present conditions, and prevent future problems. Knowix is helping organizations make data driven decisions that improve safety measures, reduce costs, and track equipment. The leadership team's extensive expertise in the rope and cable market and proven record of developing technology and bringing it to market, have guided the creation of the first truly comprehensive and reliable, digital IIoT solution for high-performance cable and rope systems.
