TDK has expanded its edgeRX predictive maintenance platform with the new SensEI edgeRX PRO sensor module. This compact industrial sensor node combines vibration, acoustic, magnetic, temperature, and rotational motion sensing with on-device edge AI processing to detect equipment faults earlier and more accurately.

TDK SensEI edgeRX PRO multi-sensor module for predictive maintenance
Key Specifications & Features
- Multi-sensor suite: Vibration + acoustic (digital microphone) + magnetic + temperature + rotational motion
- Sensors included: 6-axis IMU, magnetometer, digital microphone
- Edge AI processing: On-device anomaly detection and higher sampling rates
- Enclosure: IP67-rated for harsh industrial environments
- Power options: Battery or USB (USB takes priority when both connected)
- Battery life: Up to 10 years for continuous condition monitoring
Unlike traditional vibration-only sensors, the edgeRX PRO captures a broader range of equipment conditions, enabling detection of issues that single-sensor systems often miss.
Key Capabilities
- Compressed air leak detection
- Acoustic anomaly detection
- Rotational and alignment analysis
- Oil and gas leak detection
- Monitoring of rail components and bearings
Target Applications & Industries
- Manufacturing and precision machining
- Energy and utilities (electric power, natural gas, oil & gas)
- HVAC and smart buildings
- Warehousing and industrial facilities
- Lithium battery production and semiconductor manufacturing
- Iron and steel industry
The combination of multi-sensor data, higher sampling frequencies, and edge AI allows the platform to deliver more detailed equipment analysis while supporting both permanent installations and scalable, low-maintenance deployments.
