Solutions

Start with the problem you need to solve.

GRIT automates compatible equipment you already own — dust collection, machine access, tool custody, shop conditions, attendance, VFD collector control, and machine supervision. The capabilities share one local GRIT platform, so you can start with one problem and plan later phases around the equipment and capacity required.

How one system covers all seven

Local decisions, made on your network.

1 Devices watch the real world

Triggers sense current draw at the tool. Readers identify the person. Sensors measure pressure, particulate, and runtime. Field devices communicate over GRIT’s local wireless network rather than requiring a shop Wi-Fi connection for each device.

2 The Hub applies your rules

A small on-site device evaluates operating rules locally: open a mapped gate, command a compatible collector, evaluate machine access, or surface a configured sensor threshold.

3 Equipment responds automatically

Configured compatible gates, collectors, and machine controls apply the mapped response, while connected devices record the resulting events locally.

4 Add the next capability

A later phase can reuse compatible devices, credentials, and records already on the GRIT platform. GRIT reviews Hub tier and capacity plus any additional readers, controls, sensors, or installation work before expansion.

Before you choose

Built to retrofit what you already own.

Often, compatible blast gates, ductwork, collectors, locks, and tools can stay in service. GRIT reviews the equipment, control method, condition, electrical requirements, and intended response before specifying a retrofit.
The Hub runs control rules locally and keeps operating data on site. Connected Plant adds cloud administration, integrations, device replacement, and per-machine OEE when included in the system quote.
No. A deployment can begin with a single problem — often dust collection or machine access — on selected machines. A later phase can reuse compatible platform components; GRIT confirms the Hub tier, capacity, devices, and installation work needed for the expansion.
GRIT hardware is designed and assembled in the USA. Some devices use plug-in connections; hardwired controls and VFD work require the appropriate qualified personnel.
