Unlike rule-based condition monitoring, VIBit IQ explains every alert in maintenance language - fault, severity, fix.
No months-long implementation. No new hardware. No data science team required.
Plug into vibration, temperature, current, voltage, pressure & flow sensors you already have via Modbus, OPC-UA, MQTT or RS-485. VIBit IQ meets your data where it lives.
Edge Al/ML models run fully on-premise. Every machine, motor, pump and compressor is monitored on a unified hierarchical dashboard. Zero data leaves your OT network.
Every alert arrives with the parameter, the deviation, the threshold exceeded and a prescribed corrective action. No black-box alerts. No guesswork. Just the next step
VIBit IQ is machine anomaly detection and diagnosis platform from MachineAstro that turns machine sensor data- vibration, temperature, current, voltage, pressure, flow etc. into explainable asset health and performance management decisions. It is application built on the iEdge 360 IIOT Platform. It is sensor agnostic AI powered application connects 24+ brands via standard industrial protocols ( Modbus, MQTT, OPC-UA ) to deliver early anomaly detection, AI powered diagnosis with severity, repair commendation and bearing RCFA to identify root cause in a single unified workflow – without rip and replace, new hardware investment or vendor lock-in.
THE PAIN
You answer to the board on three numbers — uptime, OEE, cost per ton. You also answer for safety incidents
and compliance audits. Right now that means fourteen SCADA screens, a maintenance manager translating the
noise, and a different version of the truth on every desk.
WHAT VIBIT IQ DOES
VIBit IQ rolls up every monitored asset into a plant-level view with area-wise health distribution. Trend lines go
straight into the monthly ops review. Alarm history and ADR closure are audit-ready out of the box. Risk signals
appear before downtime, not after — and every number on your board deck has a single source.
THE OUTCOME
Whole-plant control in one screen. Uptime, OEE and compliance reporting on the same data — no translation
layer.
THE PROOF
▸ Plant → Area → Asset health roll-up across the entire site
▸ One-click reports — daily, weekly, monthly — for the management review
▸ ESG and compliance reporting built into the workflow, not bolted on
THE PAIN
Your plant runs 24/7 on pumps, fans, motors, gearboxes and conveyors — and the maintenance crew is
firefighting more than planning. Bearings replaced too late cost a shift. Bearings replaced too early waste capex.
The data exists; the answers don't.
WHAT VIBIT IQ DOES
VIBit IQ ingests data from your existing 24+ sensor brands, runs ADR diagnostics for every fault mode, and
delivers explainable alerts your maintenance team can act on the same shift. No rip-and-replace. No new
hardware. The sensors you already have, finally telling you what to do next.
THE OUTCOME
10–30% reduction in unplanned downtime within the first six months — measured against the plant's own
baseline.
THE PROOF
▸ Works with the sensors you already have — Modbus · MQTT · OPC-UA · RS-485
▸ Auto Diagnostics & Recommendations for every alert — fault mode + recommended action
▸ Audit-ready alarm and intervention history for ISO 55000 reliability reviews
THE PAIN
Your service business is growing — but every new client needs a vibration analyst, and you cannot hire fast
enough. Margins compress every time you take on another site. The analyst conversation also stops being
scalable: each customer asks the same five questions in a different vocabulary.
WHAT VIBIT IQ DOES
VIBit IQ gives your team a multi-tenant platform that delivers explainable diagnostics across every client site
from one interface. Every alert ships with severity, fault mode and recommended action — written for the plant
team, not the analyst. Your business scales on platform leverage, not on bench strength.
THE OUTCOME
More client sites per analyst — and higher project margins on every recurring-revenue contract.
THE PROOF
▸ Multi-tenant architecture — manage many client sites from one interface
▸ Explainable diagnostics your client can read, defend and act on
▸ Recurring-revenue model fit — subscription tiers per asset count
THE PAIN
You walk into the control room at the start of the shift. Twelve hundred sensors, ninety-four assets across four
production areas. You have five seconds to know where the trouble is — and the rest of the shift to act on it.
Swivel-chairing between SCADA, CMMS and email costs you the first hour every morning.
WHAT VIBIT IQ DOES
The Operator Dashboard is one screen. Status rings tell you what is critical, warning, operational and offline at a
glance. Click any ring → drill into the asset → see the live trend → acknowledge, resolve or escalate. One
platform, the whole shift.
THE OUTCOME
From shift-start to first action in under 5 minutes — instead of the usual first hour spent reconciling screens.
THE PROOF
▸ Critical / Warning / Operational / Idle / Disconnected rings across the whole plant
▸ Smart alerts ranked by severity — not by timestamp
▸ One-click acknowledge · resolve · open detailed view
THE PAIN
You are not buying a vibration tool. You are buying a layer that makes every plant in your portfolio visible,
comparable and improvable. The board wants the story. The plants want the proof. Procurement wants the unit
economics. Most platforms answer one of the three.
WHAT VIBIT IQ DOES
A unified intelligence layer across rotating equipment, static assets, energy and plant-level KPIs — deployed
across sites, geographies and brands of sensor you already have. No rip-and-replace. No 18-month integration
project. Decisions in weeks. Portfolio-level benchmarking inside the year.
THE OUTCOME
Portfolio-level plant intelligence inside the year — with the unit economics defensible to procurement and the
narrative defensible to the board.
THE PROOF
▸ One platform — rotating equipment + static assets + energy + plant intelligence
▸ Sensor-agnostic — works with the 24+ brands you already have, no hardware swap
▸ Multi-site visibility for portfolio benchmarking and capex prioritisation
THE PAIN
Every plant in your portfolio has a different sensor estate, a different SCADA stack, and a different reliability
story. You cannot benchmark them. The CXO cannot see them. The board asks for one number and you have
fourteen spreadsheets.
WHAT VIBIT IQ DOES
VIBit IQ unifies machine health, energy and plant-level KPIs into one portfolio view. CXOs get the transformation
narrative. Site heads keep their operational depth. Rollout is site-by-site without rip-and-replace — and every
plant joins on its own terms.
THE OUTCOME
Portfolio-level visibility across rotating equipment, energy and plant KPIs — typically within the first year of
multi-site rollout.
THE PROOF
▸ Multi-site rollout — one platform, one narrative, one source of truth
▸ Cross-site benchmarking for capex prioritisation and best-practice transfer
▸ Sensor-agnostic and brand-neutral — every plant joins on its own terms
THE PAIN
Your customers are asking for predictive maintenance bundled with the equipment — not bolted on six months
after commissioning. Building it yourself is an eighteen-month roadmap conversation. Buying it locks you to a
proprietary stack. Both options compromise your product.
WHAT VIBIT IQ DOES
VIBit IQ runs on the iEdge 360 platform — already trusted by 120+ manufacturers with 1B+ sensor data points
flowing — so embedding is a deployment, not a development project. White-label or co-brand, your equipment
ships with predictive intelligence on day one.
THE OUTCOME
Digital roadmap compressed by 12–24 months versus building in-house — measured by partner OEMs across
rotating-equipment categories.
THE PROOF
▸ White-label and co-brand options on the iEdge 360 backbone
▸ Standard industrial-protocol integration — no proprietary bridges
▸ Joint go-to-market model — lead in smart maintenance, not behind it
THE PAIN
You are tired of replacing bearings that still had life in them. You are also tired of replacing bearings after they
failed. You want the data to tell you the right week — and you want to defend that call in the Monday review
without arguing about FFT peaks the operations team does not read.
WHAT VIBIT IQ DOES
Every alert comes with a fault mode, severity and recommended action — written in maintenance language, not
data-science language. RUL forecasts tell you how many days until warning, how many until critical. Trend and
FFT views give you the proof your reliability engineer needs to sign off the work order — and the explanation
Operations will accept.
THE OUTCOME
80% reduction in time spent on manual condition checks. Work orders defensible at every Monday review.
THE PROOF
▸ ADR (Auto Diagnostics & Recommendations) — diagnosis + fix per alert, every time
▸ Remaining Useful Life per parameter — with probability score and visual zone bands
▸ Asset-wise health-score history across every monitored machine, not just today
Most condition-monitoring tools tell you a parameter has crossed a threshold. VIBit IQ tells you which fault is developing, what it means for the asset and exactly what to do next.
Purpose-built for industrial plants running rotating and static equipment.

Decisions, Not Dashboards
Built for plant operators, maintenance managers and plant heads.
Every screen is designed around one question: what should I do next?
01 - Asset Health Summary
A single command-centre view of every connected asset across the facility. Status rings show what is critical, what is in warning, what is operational, and what has gone offline, so the operator walks in and knows in 5 seconds where the day’s attention belongs.
02 - Trend & FFT Diagnostics
Move from “something is wrong” to “this is the bearing fault frequency.” Rolling trend charts sit side-by-side with FFT spectrum analysis — so the maintenance team can see velocity and acceleration over time and the exact frequency signature behind each anomaly. No external software. No exporting raw data.
03 - Auto Diagnostics & Recommendations (ADR)
VIBit IQ does not just flag an anomaly – it tells the maintenance head what fault mode is developing, what it means for the asset and exactly what corrective action to take. Every recommendation is timestamped, severity-graded and written for the shop floor, not the data team.
04 - Al/ML Based Bearing Root Cause Fault Analysis
Upload bearing imagery alongside vibration history – VIBit IQ’s AI returns observed damage, failure mode, root cause and recommended actions in maintenance language. Visual evidence, sensor signal and AI reasoning, in one window.
05 - Machine Heath Score
A consolidated health score for every machine, computed from vibration, temperature and operational data. Move beyond point-in-time alerts to long-range health trends – so the maintenance manager can see which assets are quietly degrading months before they fail.
06 - Asset-Wise Alarm History
Every alarm is time stamped, asset-tagged and one click away from acknowledgment, resolution or a deeper view. Filter by asset, severity or status. Audit-ready history is generated automatically – no spreadsheets, no manual logs.
07 - Remaining Useful Life (RUL)
RUL converts vibration trends into a forecast – how many days until a parameter crosses warning, how many until critical and the probability of failure in that window. Maintenance moves from calendar-based intervals to evidence-based scheduling.
Universal Compatibility

VIBit IQ is plant-intelligence software from MachineAstro that turns vibration, temperature, current, voltage, pressure and flow data into explainable predictive-maintenance decisions. It runs on the iEdge 360 platform and works with sensors from 24+ manufacturers via Modbus, MQTT, OPC-UA and RS-485 — without rip-and-replace.
Where most condition-monitoring tools surface raw alerts, VIBit IQ delivers severity-graded fault diagnosis with root cause and recommended action — written in maintenance language, not data-science language. As of FY27, VIBit IQ is deployed across 8,000+ industrial assets in cement, automotive, chemical, FMCG, steel and oil & gas plants.
VIBit IQ goes beyond threshold-based condition monitoring. Where typical tools alert when a parameter crosses a limit, VIBit IQ identifies the developing fault mode, explains its root cause, and prescribes the corrective action — timestamped, severity-graded and explainable to the maintenance team.
This is what MachineAstro calls decisions, not just dashboards — every alert traces to a specific fault mode and is defensible to the maintenance head with no black-box ML. The platform combines FFT spectrum analysis, AI/ML anomaly detection and Remaining Useful Life forecasting in one workspace.
VIBit IQ supports 24+ vibration sensor brands including ABB, Acoem, CTC, Honeywell, Pruftechnik, SKF, SPM Instrument, Sensoteq and Wilcoxon — connected via Modbus, MQTT, OPC-UA and RS-485 industrial protocols. New brands are added quarterly.
The full list as of FY27 includes ABB, Acoem, Adash, Althen, BeanAir, Broadsens, CTC, Doton, Dynamox, Erbessd, Honeywell, I-Care, IoTNest, MachineSaver, Monnit, PetaSense, Presage, Pruftechnik, Ronds, SKF, SPM Instrument, Sensoteq, TWTG, pureSignal, T-Wave, VibePro, WEG, Wilcoxon and iQunet. Plants typically deploy VIBit IQ on the sensor estate already installed — no rip-and-replace, no procurement cycle.
Yes. VIBit IQ is air-gap capable and runs fully on-premise inside your OT network with zero outbound connectivity. It is engineered for facilities with strict IT, OT and data-sovereignty requirements.
Air-gap deployment is in production as of FY27 across cement, chemical, defence-adjacent automotive, pharmaceutical and steel plants. The same VIBit IQ codebase supports cloud, hybrid and fully air-gapped configurations — no separate SKU, no separate engineering team.
VIBit IQ deploys in 2 to 4 weeks for a single plant on existing iEdge 360 infrastructure — 2 weeks for a single asset class, 4 weeks for a multi-area facility. Multi-site rollouts typically follow at one plant every 4 to 6 weeks after the first.
Because VIBit IQ uses the sensors and gateways already installed in the facility, there is no rip-and-
replace, no new hardware investment and no procurement cycle. As of FY27, MachineAstro has deployed VIBit IQ across 120+ manufacturing sites in four years.
VIBit IQ delivers 99.9% diagnostic accuracy with zero false alerts across 8,000+ deployed assets, measured between FY23 and FY27. Every alert traces to a specific fault mode — no black-box ML — and is verifiable against ground-truth maintenance logs.
Accuracy is measured against actual maintenance interventions and verified failure modes captured by reliability engineers, not against synthetic test data. Each alert specifies fault type, severity and recommended action in maintenance language.
VIBit IQ is deployed across cement, automotive, chemical, FMCG, steel and oil & gas plants, with sector-specific failure modes, thresholds and operating rhythms calibrated for each industry. As of FY27, MachineAstro counts 120+ manufacturing customers across these sectors.
VIBit IQ is also used by OEM partners that embed it in their equipment, condition-based monitoring service providers that deliver it as a managed service, and multi-site enterprises running unified plant intelligence across portfolios. Sector-specific outcomes include catastrophic compressor failure averted in chemicals, 70% downtime reduction on automotive stamping lines, and 8-point OEE lift on FMCG packaging.
No. VIBit IQ generates the maintenance and reliability decisions, then exports them to your existing BI stack via Excel reports, MQTT and REST API streams, or OFCON/JSON payloads. It runs alongside Power BI, Tableau and SAP — it does not replace them.
Plant operators, maintenance managers and plant heads each see the same source of truth in their role-appropriate VIBit IQ view, while downstream systems continue to receive structured data feeds for finance, ESG and executive reporting.
AI-based RCFA in VIBit IQ is a multi-modal Root Cause Failure Analysis capability that combines bearing imagery with vibration spectrum and trend data to identify observed damage, failure mode and root cause for any rotating asset. It returns structured recommendations in maintenance language.
Root Cause Failure Analysis is the reliability-engineering practice of identifying why an asset failed — typically performed by a dedicated analyst. VIBit IQ’s AI-based RCFA makes this evidence-based investigation possible without a reliability analyst on staff: maintenance teams upload a bearing photograph, the AI returns observed damage, failure mode, root cause and recommended actions, with the result auto-linked to the originating fault ticket.
VIBit IQ is priced per asset under monitoring, with custom enterprise quotes for multi-site deployments. Pricing is based on the number of assets, sensor brands in scope, on-premise vs cloud deployment model and depth of analytics required. Contact MachineAstro sales for a quote tailored to your plant.
Most customers see VIBit IQ self-fund within the first year through a single avoided unplanned shutdown — typical industrial buyers cite 30% reduction in unplanned downtime and 80% reduction in manual inspection time as the primary commercial drivers. A 30-minute discovery call is the standard entry point to scoping and pricing.
