A new telematics package makes maintenance easier for owners of Rokbak ADTs


Rokbak claims increased uptime for its ADTs due to sophisticated telematics. The simple, user-friendly telematics package is said to help customers make data-led decisions about the maintenance of their machines for increased availability, lower repair costs and a longer lifespan.

Using Haul Track telematics, site managers keep track of data from a Rokbak RA30 ADT in real time.

According to Garry Moore, a customer support manager for Rokbak, “More and more customers have been engaging with our Haul Track telematics system over the last few years. Some even have full ‘command centres’ filled with screens as they monitor data from their fleets in real-time.” 

The Rokbak Haul Track telematics system comes as standard on the RA30 and RA40 ADTs. Its simplicity and user-friendly interface are what set it apart, enablingenable customers to access actionable insights and make data-driven decisions about their fleet management. 

For example, online portal includes tools such as Fleet Manager and Fleet Tracker allow users to customise dashboards according to their priorities and targets, set maintenance parameters and receive automated reports and email alerts. The online Haul Track portal includes a dedicated maintenance section with a list of all machines due for attention and their service requirements.

This allows fleet managers to stay on top of regular maintenance requirements and address minor issues before they turn into serious and expensive problems. This proactive maintenance approach leads to greater equipment uptime and a longer lifespan, as well as a reduced total cost of ownership (TCO). 

Besides service reminders, Haul Track can also be configured to directly alert fleet managers via email to fault codes that signal potential issues before they escalate. This capability not only protects key components but also helps maintain effective operation and minimise downtime.

Recognising that many customers operate mixed-brand fleets, Rokbak has integrated the Haul Track telematics system with the AEMP 2.0 API, the industry-wide standard that enables management of telematics data across various equipment brands. 

Rokbak also offers an On-Board Weigh load system that comes with a separate human machine interface screen connecting to Haul Track to provide live payload data. When combined with the On-Board Weigh system, Haul Track helps operators to maintain the optimum payload, promoting efficient operation, protecting key components and supporting the long-term health and reliability of the equipment.
