FutureMain, a company specializing in artificial intelligence for industrial maintenance and equipment monitoring, will demonstrate its newly developed diagnostic system — the ExRBM — at the 2026 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
FutureMain positions its industrial maintenance solution as a focused AI tool for sectors reliant on heavy machinery. The technology utilizes a substantial multi-decade archive of engineering information to evaluate the operational condition of equipment. The ExRBM system claims to automatically recognize failure patterns with a high degree of precision and to forecast the most effective time for servicing.
Alongside the main software platform, FutureMain also boasts a companion handheld device, which is dubbed the ExRBM Portable+. This format is designed to deliver immediate diagnostic results to technicians in various field conditions, with an emphasis on providing interpretable reasoning for its AI-generated assessments.
