Ten Systems, and a Year That Kept Growing

A short look back at the year behind us: a first major Tier 1 order, a second plant that followed within weeks, new customers in Japan and the United States, and 23 systems now heading into data centers.

Some years are about building the thing. This one was about people deciding to buy it.

Ten systems on one line — the order that changed the scale of our deployments.

The turning point came when one of the world’s largest automotive Tier 1 suppliers placed its first major order with us: ten systems, on one line. For a company whose deployments had until then been counted in single units, that was a different order of magnitude — and a different kind of conversation.

An inspection station on a production line: a sensor head above a metal fixture plate drilled with holes, with an operator screen beside it.
Inspection where the part is made. No measurement cell, no queue, no waiting for a result.

What happened next mattered more than the number. A second facility at the same customer placed its own order soon after. A plant that has watched a system run next door and decides it wants one too is the clearest signal a supplier can get.

New names joined as well. A leading Japanese automotive supplier, from a market with a well-earned reputation for testing everything twice before it commits. And a well-funded American EV company, where the pace is the opposite and the tolerance for delay is zero. Two very different buyers, the same problem.

The part as built, compared against the part as designed — in real time, on the line.

And we are starting the new year with something we would not have predicted twelve months ago: 23 systems for the production of racks used in data and logistics centers. Technologically it was a small step — different parts, different CAD file, same principle. Commercially it opened a market we were not in a year ago.

More customers. A new industry that found us rather than the other way round.

Thank you for your trust, your support, and for being part of this journey. We are heading into the new year with plenty more to share.

The Data Center Boom's Unexpected Winners

Record demand for data center capacity is pushing billions of dollars down the supply chain, into generator, transformer and metal fabrication plants, and into one Israeli inspection company that built its technology for the auto industry.
