About

Sensors for hard places

Senstrali is a Perth sensor company. We build instruments for places where off-the-shelf sensors do not survive, and we are applying that to the most numerous rotating parts on a mine site: conveyor idler rollers.

Founder. Twenty years designing sensors and instruments for extreme environments: a PhD in engineering from the University of Western Australia, then thirteen years at SLB on MEMS pressure sensing and downhole ultrasonic transducers built to run at high temperature and pressure. Adjunct Senior Research Fellow at UWA's School of Engineering.

The Senstrali system is designed and built in Perth. Hardware is tested on an idler rig that runs failed rollers recovered from WA mine sites alongside good ones.

Two products, one set of hardware

Senstrali Triage grades every monitored zone Healthy, Watch or Alert against its own baseline, and gives the site the trend and the recording behind each grade. It reports the present state. It does not predict.

Senstrali Forecast is in planning: a remaining-life estimate for each zone, built from run-to-failure testing and the data the pilots produce. It will be released when that evidence says it can be trusted, not before.

Consulting

We take on sensing and instrumentation problems outside conveyors: transducer design, front-end electronics, packaging for heat, pressure and vibration, and field validation. Learn more, or email jason@senstrali.com.au.

Pilot on one section of one conveyor

Founding pilots are being set up in Western Australia; places for the next round are limited.
