No. Certification is optional for technology partners, and training is available to your team if you want it. The program centers on building a working API or SDK integration and taking it to market together.

Yes. The architects and engineers who deploy SensFlo for your clients complete SensFlo enablement training and certification before the first client deployment. Certification is also what allows resellers to offer optional Tier 1 client support.

Referral partners receive co-branded sales materials, a dedicated Partner Success Manager, lead registration protection and access to a 24/7 support line. No certification is required to get started.

Every SensFlo partner program includes marketing materials and 24/7 support. Referral, Reseller, OEM and Consulting partners also work with a dedicated Partner Success Manager, and the programs that involve client deployments add technical training and escalation support.

Each program has its own revenue model. Referral partners earn a referral fee, resellers keep a resale margin, OEM partners pay a licensing fee and set their own prices, consulting partners charge a services fee, and technology partners grow through co-selling and joint go-to-market campaigns.

Choose the program that matches the role you already play for manufacturers. Referral fits companies that make introductions, Reseller fits solution providers that deploy software, OEM fits equipment makers, Consulting fits firms that bill for implementation, and Technology fits companies whose products integrate with SensFlo.

Apply to one of the five SensFlo partner programs. Applications are reviewed within five business days, and OEM partners also receive a co-branded customer page on sensflo.ai, like the one built with Haitian Mexico.

Browse the SensFlo partner directory to see which equipment makers and providers already work with SensFlo, and open a partner's page to see what SensFlo does on their machines. You can also email info@sensflo.ai to ask about partners that serve your region.

No. You get the same FloControl™ platform, AI analysis and solution levels as any SensFlo customer. Depending on the partner's program, installation and first-line support may come from the partner, with SensFlo engineers available behind them.

Yes, if your supplier is a SensFlo partner. OEM partners such as Haitian Mexico ship machines with SensFlo integrated, and reseller partners sell and deploy SensFlo alongside their own solutions. If your supplier isn't a partner yet, you can buy directly from SensFlo.

A SensFlo partner is a company with an agreement to refer, resell, embed, implement or integrate SensFlo machine monitoring for manufacturers. Partners belong to one of the five SensFlo partner programs and include machine builders, systems integrators, industrial distributors and consulting firms.

Haitian Mexico backs its injection molding machines with local support, and the SensFlo team is available at info@sensflo.ai or +1 (415) 622-5692. You can also book a demo to see SensFlo running on Haitian machines.

No, not unless your setup requires it. Installing SensFlo on a Haitian machine follows three steps, connect, calibrate and go, and averages under one hour per machine over a secure local network or Wi-Fi connection.

SensFlo on Haitian machines starts from $100 USD per machine per month, and customers see an average ROI of 6 months from less downtime and greater efficiency. Compare Lite, Pro and Premier on the pricing page, or estimate your return with the ROAI calculator.

SensFlo complements existing ERP, MES, quality, and food safety systems by providing current machine and production data. FloControl™ can give these systems a more accurate view of machine availability, downtime, cycle performance, utilization, and selected process conditions.

SensFlo can collect equipment, process, alert, and event data related to procedures established by the facility. The facility determines its hazards, preventive controls, critical control points, critical limits, monitoring frequency, corrective actions, verification requirements, and approved instruments. FloControl helps organize relevant production data for faster review and response.

Food and beverage production monitoring collects machine activity, downtime, throughput, equipment condition, and selected process measurements while production is running. It gives operations, maintenance, and quality teams a shared view of production performance. The information can support capacity improvement, maintenance planning, scheduling, waste reduction, and records associated with established food safety procedures.

Manufacturers calculate OEE by multiplying Availability x Performance x Quality. Availability measures runtime against planned production time, Performance compares actual speed to ideal cycle time, and Quality measures good output against total output. With IoT data, continuous machine signals replace manual shift log estimates, giving teams more accurate downtime, cycle time, idle time, and production behavior data for each asset, shift, or line.

In TPM, the goal is to keep equipment productive by reducing losses before they interrupt production. IoT supports TPM by capturing real-time sensor data from machines, then using that data to detect early signs of faults such as vibration changes, temperature shifts, abnormal cycles, or repeated stops. The SensFlo FloControl™ platform turns those signals into production and maintenance visibility so teams can reduce unplanned downtime and protect throughput.

Machine utilization measures how effectively equipment is used during planned production time and is closely tied to the Availability component of OEE. The primary gap IoT monitoring addresses is availability loss, including downtime, idle time, setup overruns, and stoppages that reduce sellable output. In discrete manufacturing, 60% OEE is often typical, while 85% is considered world-class, showing how much capacity can be recovered from existing machines.
