The company has carved out a specific niche for itself by developing and deploying advanced process measurement and control solutions, primarily targeting the natural resource industries. Its business is centered on providing technologies that offer real-time process measurements, which are then converted into actionable data for clients to enhance production efficiency and recovery. CiDRA serves major mining companies, with its solutions implemented in over 400 mining operations across more than 45 countries. The company's revenue stream is derived from the sale of its specialized hardware and software solutions. The product portfolio is built upon a substantial intellectual property foundation, which includes over 500 patents and patent applications both in the U.S. and internationally. Among its key offerings is the SONARtrac® process technology, a non-intrusive system that measures volumetric flow and entrained air in various industrial pipes. This technology is noted for its reliability and low maintenance requirements. Another significant product is the CYCLONEtrac™ grind management technology, which provides particle size measurements from individual cyclones, allowing for precise control and optimization of the grinding circuit in mineral processing. These systems are designed to improve operational reliability and optimize resource extraction for its clients in the global mining sector.
