The alternative to Liquidtool
Cloud-based, fully automatic coolant monitoring with a sensor in the tank (sister company of Blaser Swisslube).
What is the difference?
Liquidtool measures via a sensor in the tank and refills cloud-based. DOSIMETRIX® hybrid keeps concentration stable without a sensor in the coolant and without a cloud requirement.
| Criterion | Liquidtool | DOSIMETRIX® hybrid |
|---|---|---|
| Control logic | Setpoint / threshold control | Optional AI: recognises patterns (utilisation, environment, weather) and controls predictively |
| Measuring principle | Sensor in the tank (concentration / temperature) | Digital hand refractometer, no sensor in the coolant |
| Cloud | Cloud-based, central platform | Optional (FLUIDAS) — fully offline-capable |
| Sensor maintenance | Cleaning & calibration | Minimal |
| Data ownership | Cloud platform | Local or cloud — your choice |
| Investment / ROI | Subscription + hardware | Low — ROI usually < 12 months |
When is Liquidtool the right choice?
When a cloud-centric 24/7 dashboard with continuous sensor measurement is desired and cloud connectivity is not an issue.
When is DOSIMETRIX® hybrid the better choice?
When you want independence from cloud and subscription — with robust, low-maintenance technology and full data ownership in-house.
