Pinpoint accuracy offered by Leica’s iCON MCH100 and Telematics

Leica’s iCON MCH100 and Telematics machine monitoring systems make it possible to know what any type of earthmoving machine is doing anytime and anywhere in the quarry or construction site. The iCON MCH100 unit, which offers the real-time location of machinery, can be attached in a non-invasive fashion with no calibration needed. Importantly, it has wireless connectivity for any type of earthmoving equipment – and from any manufacturer - and can stand up to long hours of operation in rugged conditions.

Accuracy and more: Leica’s iCON MCH100 and Telematics systems

265 Leica’s iCON MCH100 and Telematics machine monitoring systems make it possible to know what any type of earthmoving machine is doing anytime and anywhere in the quarry or construction site.

The iCON MCH100 unit, which offers the real-time location of machinery, can be attached in a non-invasive fashion with no calibration needed. Importantly, it has wireless connectivity for any type of earthmoving equipment – and from any manufacturer - and can stand up to long hours of operation in rugged conditions.

Leica’s ICON Telematics takes the information for analysis which is then presented in a user-friendly visual way for any employee. It can monitor overtime and off-schedule activity, as well as use projected schedules to easily identify costly overtime.

For multiple site managers and owners, the iCON Telematics system can compare performance across projects, regions and other groupings. It is also easily accessible from any internet-connected device, making it practically universal.

    Demand for telematics technology is growing, as equipment users begin to lean the value of these systems – Alan Dron reports With construction projects increasingly operating to wafer-thin profit margins, any technological assistance that can keep the accounts in the black is welcome. This is particularly the case with those projects where contractors can share a larger slice of the profits if they complete their work ahead of schedule. The downside, of course, is that they also share the pain if the
