The xBud™ is a wireless vibration monitoring solution. It can be configured to suit your data collection and monitoring requirements.
The xBud™ is a highly agnostic wireless data acquisition and vibration monitoring device coupled with a phone app for easy deployment and cloud based software. It allows a great deal of flexibility in its use and capability.
The xBud™ NO CODE web tool helps you to configure your xBud™ nodes to monitor what you want, how you want:
- Measure and record baseline vibrating and angular conditions
- Automate anomaly / exception detection
- Design your own measurement parameters and set thresholds to receive alerts
- Send the data to external software and control systems
Customise the wireless vibration monitoring application with the xBud™ NO CODE online programmer
