Real Results With Real-Time Oversight

Canadian Global’s Smart Link technology gives operators and support teams full visibility into all top drive functions, including temperatures, RPMs, torque, and environmental metrics, without needing to be physically present. With built-in alerts, troubleshooting support, and long-term data logs, our system helps you catch issues early, minimize downtime, and maintain compliance.

  • Top Drive Maintenance: Easily track rotating hours, oil life, gear wear, and operating days to schedule proactive service and avoid unplanned repairs.
  • Drive Data: Instantly view all live values tied to top drive function, including connection torque. Operators get quick green-light indicators for real-time verification.
  • Main PLC: Zoom into any input or output card to see full schematics and values. No external software or specialty laptop needed.
  • Driller’s Console: Access status and command signals for the top drive directly through the system, giving clarity and control back to the driller.
  • PQM (Power Quality Monitoring): Track power flow, voltage consistency, and harmonic distortion to prevent electrical issues and maximize equipment longevity.

Smarter Maintenance With Total System Awareness

Top drive performance depends on real-time visibility, and Canadian Global’s Smart Link monitoring platform delivers exactly that. We track critical indicators like gearbox oil life, operating days, and rotation hours while layering in system-wide insight from your AC/DC Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs). This integration gives operators a complete picture of electrical performance, environmental conditions, and mechanical wear. Whether you’re in the field or remote, you’ll have the data needed to schedule service, replace components, and optimize uptime with confidence.

Live Drive Performance at a Glance

The drive data screen gives operators a quick and intuitive view of top drive conditions. In EXI drives, green lights must be active before rotation begins. This makes it easy to confirm readiness, spot faults, and resolve them before they escalate.

Full PLC Visibility Without Specialized Tools

With built-in PLC diagnostics, any operator can see real-time inputs, outputs, and logic card activity without needing specialized tools. You can isolate and troubleshoot faults visually, using live schematics to zoom in and verify values instantly, removing costly guesswork from the equation.

Full Visibility, Transparent Service, and 24x7x365 Field Support

Smart Link does more than surface performance metrics; it’s your command center for rapid response, transparent diagnostics, and real-time operational support. From the moment it’s installed, your team gains access to 24/7 remote monitoring, preventative maintenance alerts, and direct 1-800 troubleshooting. We back that visibility with the fastest lead times on parts distribution, full in-house recertification and repair capabilities, and round-the-clock field deployment support. Everything is documented, traceable, and engineered to keep your operation ahead of downtime.

  • A Centralized Control Hub for Operators

    Our streamlined interface helps operators identify system issues quickly and move between panels without delay. Canadian Global’s team monitors system health remotely and, in most cases, can resolve problems without dispatching techs, saving you time, cost, and productivity losses.

  • Instant Alerts That Prevent Shutdowns

    When something goes wrong, you’ll know immediately. Our system sends instant alerts via email and SMS to both operators and Canadian Global managers. These alarms allow your team to take corrective action before shutdowns occur, keeping operations steady and avoiding unnecessary downtime.
