A bolt, for example.
With TOKBO, born within an innovation journey promoted by e-Novia, this basic component becomes an advanced technology for safer infrastructures. No surprise that it was featured in La Repubblica’s Innovation Focus.
By combining IoT and Artificial Intelligence, smart bolts turn into “sentinels” capable of monitoring structures in real time, anticipating critical issues and extending the life cycle of major works.
Each TOKBO bolt integrates sensors to measure:
This enables a shift from reactive to predictive maintenance, with clear benefits: risk reduction, cost optimization, and greater structural reliability.
TOKBO is designed for environments where safety is paramount:
In these contexts, smart bolts provide a critical layer of monitoring to prevent failures and ensure operational continuity.
The potential goes beyond infrastructures. The same technology can also be applied to smart buildings.
Through IoT monitoring systems for buildings, TOKBO can help track structural conditions in public facilities, office complexes, and residential housing, enhancing safety, energy efficiency, and sustainability.
In increasingly connected cities, smart bolts become key enablers of urban resilience.
TOKBO is already part of the preparations for the Milan Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, supporting the resilience of infrastructures that will host the event.
A concrete example of how deep tech, when combined with engineering and industrial vision, can generate tangible value for society.
