LinkOA for autonomous haulage. Mobilaris for underground awareness. Certiq for Epiroc equipment telematics. 6th Sense tying the pieces together. Good foundations. What the ecosystem does not yet cover is the non-Epiroc fleet, the underground connectivity infrastructure, tire lifecycle management, fuel optimisation, predictive parts, and dispatch AI. SymX.AI has spent eighteen years building those layers. The co-development relationship between our companies already exists.
Cat Product Link / MineStar. Komatsu KOMTRAX. Hitachi ConSite. Epiroc Certiq. Sandvik My Sandvik. Liebherr LiDAT. SymBot ingests CAN bus data from any OEM. No firmware modifications. No OEM approval needed. One normalised data model.
All SymX telemetry feeds directly into AVEVA PI System, OSIsoft PI, or Honeywell PHD at no additional charge. The mine keeps its existing historian as system of record. SymX adds the mobile fleet layer that historians were never designed to capture.
Predictive maintenance alerts from X.Machines auto-trigger work orders in SAP PM, Maximo, or JDE. Parts procurement from X.Parts pushes demand signals directly to ERP. No manual re-keying. No middleware. API-native integration.
This interoperability is not a feature request. It is how the platform was designed from the start. SymX can be the fastest path for Epiroc's technology modernisation because it plugs into what the customer already has rather than replacing it.
SymBot edge devices ingest CAN bus data from Cat, Komatsu, Hitachi, Liebherr, Sandvik. Edge compute processes data on-machine. Streams through HaLow WiFi mesh, LTE, or satellite. One dashboard, one data model, every OEM. This is what Certiq could become if extended beyond Epiroc-manufactured equipment.
Illustrative revenue: 3,900+ automated machines at USD 500–800/machine/month, 30% attach → USD 7–11M ARR. Broader serviced fleet (50,000+ machines) at lower attach rates could reach multiples.
X.Machines ↗Four-layer stack co-developed with Yokohama Mining: proprietary sensors per wheel position, IoT through SymBot, AI degradation and blowout prediction, lifecycle management application. 20% tire life extension validated. No OEM has this. A 100-truck fleet carries USD 24–48M in rubber.
Customer savings: 20% life extension on a 100-truck fleet → USD 4.8–9.6M/yr in deferred replacement. New recurring subscription stream for Epiroc.
X.Tires ↗Fleet-wide fuel tracking: litres-per-tonne-km by truck, route, shift, operator. Haul road condition monitoring identifies segments where poor road surface raises rolling resistance and wastes fuel. For BEV fleets: kWh-per-tonne, charge scheduling optimised against production plans, battery health prediction.
Validated: 9% fuel savings. On a USD 10M/yr fuel bill → ~USD 900K direct savings per site. BEV intelligence extends to Epiroc's ~600 deployed electric vehicles.
X.Fleet ↗X.Machines: 48–72 hour advance failure warning across any OEM. Engine health, hydraulics, powertrain. X.Parts (patented): auto-triggers procurement before the truck goes down. Runs on mobile and fixed plant interchangeably. The patent is a structural moat.
Validated: 50% downtime reduction. 14% maintenance cost savings. Outcome-based contracts may command 15–20% premium on Epiroc's SEK 40B+ aftermarket base.
X.Parts ↗HaLow WiFi mesh (IEEE 802.11ah). Sub-1 GHz. 1 km underground. Self-healing. Every machine becomes a mesh node. No GPS, no pre-existing infrastructure. Deployed for years in working mines. SpaceX satellite for remote surface. Edge compute processes data on-machine before transmission.
Epiroc context: Mobilaris MCE requires mine network infrastructure. X.Connect provides it. The two are complementary: Mobilaris applications on SymX connectivity would reach mines that currently have neither.
X.Connect ↗Real-time cycle optimisation. Eliminates queuing, idle time, bottlenecks. Underground dispatch handles single-lane drifts, ventilation restrictions, BEV charge scheduling. Surface dispatch includes haul road monitoring and route optimisation. 23% cycle time reduction proven underground.
Epiroc context: LinkOA drives trucks autonomously. Dispatch intelligence that sequences the fleet for throughput is a separate capability not currently in Epiroc's stack.

X.Tires product page ↗Epiroc's Capital Markets Day on June 8 will present the next phase of the automation, electrification, and digital strategy. The investor audience will ask where the growth comes from.
The answer Epiroc can give today: larger automated fleets, more BEV orders, higher aftermarket penetration.
The answer it cannot yet give: what happens to the data generated by those fleets. Who converts equipment sales into outcome-based contracts. Who provides the intelligence layer that ties automation to measurable ROI at the customer's site.
Whether that story is ready for June 8 may depend on conversations that happen in the next three weeks.
The technology has been tested. Epiroc's engineering team has validated the platform. End customers and other OEMs are running on it. The natural next step is aligning Epiroc's Digital and Integrations group with SymX's capabilities to define where and how these fit into Epiroc's product and partnership roadmap.
