Predictive maintenance: TII Connect facilitates predictive service management

TII SCHEUERLE offers a telematics system for all of its vehicles in the SPMT series which opens up specialadvantages for every customer in the SPMT segment. Even before a transport module fails, for example,because a filter has become clogged or the filling level of operating equipment is too low, the vehicle automatically reports the need for a service. Dispatchers therefore have sufficient time to direct the vehicleto the workshop and at a time when it least disrupts daily work procedures. As a result, the deploymentand service times of the TII transport solutions can be planned much more effectively and the uptime ofthe transport and manoeuvring solutions increases significantly while operating costs decrease in return.Consequential damage can also be best avoided in this way. This is why complete transparency regardingthe technical condition of a vehicle fleet is one of the key customer requirements

While most name-related systems in the transport segment only offer comparatively simple remote diagnostic functions, TII Connect also opens up so-called Smart Services with the help of intelligent analysis ofcertain vehicle parameters. In addition to predictive maintenance and service management, this includesa wide range of options for data analysis and process comparisons (business intelligence) along with condition monitoring. In order to take into account individual customer requests and to be able to offer anattractive price-performance ratio, TII SCHEUERLE has bundled functions into packages with graduatedscopes of services so that customers can select the functions that they really need according to theirneeds. Even the Basic package significantly upgrades the transport solution and offers all customers considerable added value. As part of Basic, service experts from TII SCHEUERLE have access to data and errorcodes from the SCHEUERLE SPMT modules. This enables them to respond proactively to incidents such aserror messages. For example, if there is a risk of the transport solution failing in the foreseeable future, theexperts from the TII industry specialists will arrange a service appointment and offer suitable spare parts.
