A fresh wave of technological activity is unfolding across various industries, as companies announce strategic developments in AI, sustainable energy, and manufacturing innovation. While these businesses may not be listed in the ASX 200, their advancements offer a glimpse into the evolving tech landscape within and beyond Australia's borders.
Dingo Software Accelerates Mining Technology
Dingo Software, a provider of predictive maintenance solutions for mining operations, has entered a new growth phase through a majority acquisition by The Riverside Company. This move is aimed at enhancing Dingo’s capabilities in data-driven asset health and reliability management. With backing in place, the firm is gearing up to expand its use of AI and advance global customer support systems.
Maintaining its existing leadership, Dingo plans to scale its operations and introduce more autonomous AI applications across its platform. Its flagship software, Trakka, continues to support clients operating in some of the world's most challenging mining environments.
RMIT Reinvents Titanium for Cost-Efficient 3D Printing
Innovators at RMIT University have developed a new form of 3D-printed titanium that addresses the growing cost of traditional alloys. By replacing expensive elements with more accessible alternatives, the team has created a stronger, more uniform material suitable for aerospace and medical industries.
Their method not only reduces costs but also refines print quality, resulting in fewer mechanical inconsistencies. A provisional patent has been filed, as the university explores avenues to bring the alloy into commercial use.
Carnegie Clean Energy (ASX:CCE) Expands CETO Technology
Carnegie Clean Energy is progressing toward a new chapter in wave power with the planned installation of a 6-megawatt CETO wave energy array in Europe. This project follows a memorandum of understanding with the Biscay Marine Energy Platform (BiMEP), setting the stage for commercialisation of Carnegie’s clean energy technology.
The proposed wave array will connect to BiMEP’s offshore infrastructure, allowing Carnegie to begin early-stage development and deployment of its commercial-scale CETO units. These units are expected to operate in conjunction with an ongoing European initiative through the ACHIEVE program, which supports the evolution of renewable energy solutions.
From mining intelligence to marine energy and next-gen materials, these initiatives reflect a broadening of tech horizons. As innovation gains momentum across sectors, these firms are making strides that could reshape industry standards and future capabilities.
