Orbit 60 officially launched to the market / successfully deployed in specific regions
Since Bently Nevada announced the launch of its next-generation flagship monitoring and protection platform, Orbit 60, after pilot validation in multiple strategic markets worldwide, the system has now been officially rolled out globally.

The full commercialization of Orbit 60 is not only a hardware iteration, but also a reshaping of the definition of "mechanical protection". It is no longer an isolated hardware black box, but a digital foundation that can be deeply coupled with System 1 condition monitoring software, supports edge computing, and complies with the IEC 62443 network security standard. For industrial enterprises navigating the complexities of digital transformation, the successful deployment of Orbit 60 provides a clear paradigm: achieving higher-density connectivity and more transparent data flow without sacrificing security and real-time performance. Bently Nevada is committed to leveraging its global service network to fully support global customers in smoothly migrating from classic 3500 systems to the Orbit 60 platform, representing the next decade.
Orbit 60: Six decades of mechanical expertise a revolutionary digital architecture
Orbit 60 is not a tweaked version of the 3500 system, but a generational upgrade based on the "Industry 4.0" concept. The 3500 system is a classic centralized architecture, stable and reliable, but with complex cabling, large space occupation, and relatively passive network protection. Orbit 60, on the other hand, achieves high integration of 80 channels per rack through a distributed architecture, which not only significantly reduces installation space and cable costs, but also solves the network security pain points in digital transformation at the native level with its built-in physical data isolation (Data Diode) technology. It is the digital foundation for critical machinery protection and remote monitoring in the next decade.
Orbit 60: The Central Nervous System for Building Future Industrial Infrastructure
Orbit 60 will serve as the central nervous system of future industrial infrastructure.
The full deployment of Orbit 60 represents not only a leap forward in monitoring technology but also a reshaping of how industrial assets are protected. It deeply embeds Bently Nevada's six decades of expertise in machinery protection into a distributed big data architecture, building the 'central nervous system' of future industrial infrastructure with its keen perception, rapid transmission, and native security defenses. In the wave of embracing digital transformation, it safeguards the efficient operation of core industrial assets worldwide.
A:It is Bently Nevada’s latest-generation machinery protection and condition monitoring platform, designed to replace the 3500 system with a more advanced digital architecture.
Q:How does Bently Nevada Orbit 60 handle cybersecurity?
A:It features built-in "Data Diode" technology, physically ensuring that monitoring data can only flow one-way to the control network, preventing external cyber attacks.
Q:How scalable is the Bently Nevada Orbit 60?
A:It is highly flexible, supporting up to 80 dynamic channels in a single system, and multiple racks can be seamlessly linked to form a single logical system.
Q:Is the Bently Nevada Orbit 60 compatible with older sensors?
Yes, it is fully compatible with existing proximity probes (such as the 3300 XL series), accelerometers, and velocity sensors.
Q:What is the biggest difference between Bently Nevada Orbit 60 and the 3500 system?
Orbit 60 features a distributed architecture and higher point density, supporting enhanced connectivity and more advanced cybersecurity design.
