"Smart rigging sensors" (which can include integrated load cells, tilt sensors, or even RFID tags) are a growing trend in "Cable Rigging Accessories." Beyond real-time monitoring, they gather data over time about:

• Usage Patterns: How frequently and heavily rigging components are used.

• Environmental Exposure: Data on temperature, humidity, or corrosive elements.

• Stress Cycles: Recording fatigue on specific components.

This data, often integrated via IoT (Internet of Things) platforms, feeds into predictive maintenance programs. Instead of relying on time-based schedules, maintenance can be performed when it's genuinely needed, extending the lifespan of accessories, reducing unexpected downtime, and ensuring the highest level of safety and operational efficiency for long-term projects.
