Remote monitoring and reporting

Published:  26 February, 2014

KONECRANES says that standing at the forefront of its renowned service business is TRUCONNECT – an innovative remote monitoring and reporting system that has been the subject of extensive field tests. Presently available on Konecranes’ wire rope CXT and open winch SMARTON cranes, TRUCONNECT offers a number of benefits to customers by helping them optimise crane maintenance, increase operational safety and maximise usage leading to improved productivity.

Collection of valuable crane usage data is via a remote condition monitoring unit that relays information relating to a variety of operating characteristics through to a dedicated online customer portal. The information gathered is them compiled periodically at Konecranes’ Remote Data Centre before being supplied as easy to interpret reports that include information on safety, operating statistics and service life.
