Trimble weighs in with Haul Truck Monitor

Trimble officially launched at bauma 2016 its Loadrite H2250 Haul Truck Monitor for rigid body haul trucks used in the aggregates extraction and process industry. It is not about just knowing how much the trucks are carrying - but also delivery times between excavator and crusher, speeds along the roads, down times and safety information.

Trimble’s Haul Truck Monitor for the aggregates extraction and process industry

2122 Trimble officially launched at bauma 2016 its Loadrite H2250 Haul Truck Monitor for rigid body haul trucks used in the aggregates extraction and process industry.

It is not about just knowing how much the trucks are carrying - but also delivery times between excavator and crusher, speeds along the roads, down times and safety information.

Quarry owners and site manager have full oversight of their processes, end to end. Drivers, too, have insight into their performance, thanks to an in-cab display and sensor system used in combination with InsightHQ cloud reporting and data analysis. It features near real-time production reporting, truck-speed monitoring, cycle-time analysis and location-based material tracking.

InsightHQ is a Web-based management portal accessible with any browser, including mobile devices. It consolidates live, operational information from Trimble Loadrite devices on other machines across the site, to provide near real-time productivity and performance reports for extraction, processing and load-out operations in quarries.

The H2250 provides automatic haul truck load counting and payload measurement typically within +/- 3% accuracy. It also features near real-time production reporting, truck-speed monitoring, cycle-time analysis and location-based material tracking.

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
