Digital Instruments
Our highly innovative digital product line as designated by the suffix ‘d-‘ includes an embedded microcontroller that provides highly accurate measurements reported in real-world units. This technology provides many key advantages to our users.
Our digital instrument product line can be divided into three categories: Ground movement monitoring, Reinforcement monitoring, and Geoenvironmental monitoring.
Ground Movement Monitoring

YieldPoint has worked closely with bolt manufacturers around the world such as International Rollforms (d-Split), Normet (d-Bolt), Jennmar (d-YieldLok), DSI (d-Threadbar) to develop custom solutions for rock reinforcement products. Currently, we are in the early stages of developing an instrumented Swellex bolt. If you require a customized instrumented solution for a particular product, we have the expertise to develop a monitoring solution that can potentially demonstrate the effectiveness of that product.
