As part of the company's OnlineAVL2 fleet tracking platform, the system uses GPS technology and sensors attached to fleet vehicles' to display their real-time location on one screen as well as generate in-depth vehicle usage reports for analysis.

Engine hours, maintenance status, idling time, equipment utilisation, and usage of machine attachments such as buckets, hammers and shears are among potential subjects for documentation by Qtanium 300.

    Komatsu has continued its development of Intelligent Machine Control (IMC) systems, in cooperation with global partner Topcon, with the launch of the PC210LCi-10, the first fully integrated OEM machine control crawler excavator. Unlike its IMC-equipped D61PXi/EXi dozer that was introduced last year, the popular 21 tonne excavator has been unveiled first in Europe, rather than in Japan or the USA.

    Demolition is a highly specialised business, as the machinery required to carry out the work on high-rise demolition contracts can be very site specific. Today's high reach demolition rig is no longer simply a tracked excavator with a long boom, indeed some machines cannot be used as excavators at all. Likewise a machine that is dedicated to carrying a 2.5 or 3tonne shear or hammer will need to be built to take the stresses and strains of demolition life.

    Upgrades to a slipform concrete paver built in 1999 allow it to use current technology. US firm Streb Construction has taken a novel approach to its paving fleet by upgrading a CMI paver built in 1999 to use modern machine control technology. The company bought the CMI SF3302 machine new and this piece of equipment had logged a high number of hours since its purchase. However the company realised that this proven piece of equipment could be made to operate more efficiently and productively, as well as more
