Escort Monitoring Systems operates a full-cycle in-house production, transforming innovative ideas into high-performance fuel monitoring and telematics solutions.
Precision in every sensor: the power of in-house production at Escort Monitoring Systems
This strategic approach enables the company to develop cutting-edge products at unmatched speed, minimise defects, ensure exceptional product quality, maintain supply chain stability, and provide the flexibility to meet the specific needs of system integrators and telematics service providers.
Escort Monitoring Systems specialises in capacitive fuel level sensors, renowned for their exceptional accuracy and durability. Initially focused on fuel monitoring, the company expanded its expertise to develop a wide range of advanced telematics sensors for 360-degree vehicle monitoring.
This evolution led to new directions, including environmental monitoring, weather tracking, and wire integrity control, further enhancing the company’s comprehensive telematics solutions. Escort’s diverse product portfolio provides system integrators with a complete, high-precision monitoring system tailored to various industries.
Start working as an integrator to learn all the basics
Escort Monitoring Systems began its journey as a telematics integrator in 2004. Faced with unreliable third-party fuel level sensors, the team began designing and manufacturing their own.
By 2008, a dedicated production facility was established, covering just 100 square meters with a team of 5 employees, producing 100 sensors per month. Rapid demand growth led to more automated production and the installation of the first automatic assembly machine in 2012.
Between 2018 and today, Escort Monitoring Systems has evolved into a world-class production facility spanning 5000 square meters with over 120 employees. With a production capacity of 40,000 sensors per month, the company has implemented advanced automation equipment, computer vision firmware, and a dedicated quality control department, keeping defect rates to just 0.06%.
This expansion has accelerated technological progress, improved production efficiency, and enhanced workforce – ensuring long-term stability, innovation, and fast product delivery.
Production process: six stages of quality & precision
Escort Monitoring Systems adheres to a rigorous six-stage production cycle, ensuring that every product meets the highest standards of reliability and performance.
1. Research & Development (R&D)
Innovation begins with the in-house R&D team, where 35 skilled professionals focus on designing, testing, and preparing new telematics solutions.
The entire process – from concept to prototype product – takes just two weeks, ensuring rapid development and a quick response to market demands. Escort’s R&D team not only creates customised solutions based on client specifications but also adapts products to meet regional certification requirements worldwide.
Unlike manufacturers that rely on third-party research, Escort maintains full control over product innovation, allowing for faster development, superior quality, and seamless customisation to meet client-specific needs.
By combining deep industry expertise, rapid prototyping, and continuous technological advancements, Escort’s R&D-driven approach gives integrators a strategic advantage, ensuring they always receive the most advanced, reliable, and precisely engineered telematics solutions on the market.
2. Laboratory testing
Once pilot units are developed, they undergo extensive testing under extreme conditions to guarantee:
- Reliability & durability in real-world applications.
- Functionality in extreme temperatures, ensuring performance in both high-heat and freezing environments.
- Protection against liquids and dust, complying with industry protection standards.
3. Testing ground
Beyond laboratory conditions, every product is subjected to long-term field testing in a natural environment.
This stage ensures that the sensors perform reliably under real operational conditions. Continuous monitoring identifies any potential improvements before mass production begins.
4. Assembly work
Once prototypes pass all tests, mass production begins through a meticulous assembly process, including:
- Surface-mount technology (SMT): Sensor boards are manufactured using specialised automated equipment. Automation of these processes has helped reduce the human factor to a minimum.
- Optical and X-ray inspection: Ensuring components are perfectly placed before moving forward.
- Radio assembly workshop: Sensors and weather stations are assembled, with a maximum production capacity of 40,000 sensors per month.
5. Technical inspection & calibration
At every stage, Escort’s Technical Control engineers rigorously test each device to ensure it meets industry standards. Before shipping, sensors undergo:
- Operability testing, verifying full functionality.
- Factory calibration, guaranteeing absolute measurement accuracy.
For Sokol weather equipment, additional pre-shipment testing ensures seamless integration of all components for end-to-end system reliability.
6. Packaging & shipment
Escort Monitoring Systems guarantees safe and efficient packaging, tailored for secure transportation. With hubs in India, Mexico, and the UAE, the company ensures fast global deliveries. To further enhance logistics, new warehouse locations are in development, expanding Escort’s presence and optimising supply chain efficiency.
With complete control over production, Escort Monitoring Systems delivers industry-leading product quality, rapid innovation, and seamless integration for telematics system providers worldwide.
Whether it’s fuel monitoring, axle load measurement, environmental sensing, or custom telematics solutions, Escort provides cutting-edge technology backed by superior manufacturing expertise.
Partnering with Escort means:
- Faster project deployment
- Reduced operational risks
- Maximum efficiency
All backed by a company that is shaping the future of telematics with innovation, precision, and reliability.
