Why does a plant machinery tracker benefit the business operations?

Using a plant machinery tracker offers several benefits to businesses involved in industries such as construction, agriculture, mining, and other industries that rely on heavy equipment:

Asset Tracking and Recovery:

Plant machinery is often very valuable and can be a target for theft. Plant machinery trackers enable real-time monitoring of equipment locations, aiding in theft prevention and facilitating faster recovery if stolen.

Enhanced Security:

With plant machinery trackers installed, unauthorised use or movement of machinery can be immediately detected. This helps prevent misuse and ensures that equipment remains where it should be, reducing the risk of unauthorised use or loss.

Optimised Utilisation:

Tracking plant machinery usage and operational hours can provide insights into how efficiently the equipment is being used. Likewise, trackers can track specifics such as movement height for digger arms in controlled zones. This data can help optimise utilisation, identify underused assets, and schedule maintenance or servicing based on actual usage rather than fixed schedules.

Improved Maintenance Scheduling:

Trackers can collect data on equipment health and usage patterns. This information enables predictive maintenance scheduling, reducing downtime and unexpected breakdowns by allowing proactive servicing based on actual usage patterns.

Cost Savings:

Efficient utilisation and proactive maintenance lead to cost savings. Avoiding unexpected repairs or breakdowns, reducing idle time, and optimising equipment usage all contribute to cost efficiencies for the business.

Increased Productivity:

Knowing the real-time location and status of machinery allows for better coordination and scheduling of equipment for various projects. This helps in optimising workflow and resource allocation, ultimately increasing overall productivity.

Compliance and Documentation:

Some industries have regulations governing the usage and maintenance of heavy machinery. Trackers can assist in maintaining documentation by providing data on machinery usage, service history, and compliance with regulatory requirements.

Insurance Premium Reduction:

Many insurance companies offer reduced premiums for equipment equipped with tracking devices due to decreased risk of theft and potential for faster recovery in case of theft.

Asset Management:

Collecting data on equipment usage, performance, and location allows for better asset management. Businesses can make informed decisions about equipment deployment, replacement, or expansion based on actual utilization patterns.

Overall, using plant machinery trackers helps businesses in these industries to improve security, operational efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and regulatory compliance while enabling better asset management and overall business performance.
