JCB has updated its LiveLink telematics platform with a series of developments designed to help customers improve profitability, safety and sustainability across their operations.
The latest updates see expanded safety and security functionality added across the platform. These include new remote machine management features - including JCB IntelliSense integration - available on Hi-Viz Loadall telescopic handlers.
JCB LiveLink is designed to help customers monitor and maintain their machines more effectively. Currently connecting more than 580,000 machines worldwide and supporting over 40,000 customers, JCB LiveLink is accessible through a web browser and mobile app and covers JCB and mixed fleets. The system provides information on machine location, utilisation, fuel consumption, maintenance requirements and security, helping customers maximise uptime, improve fuel efficiency and make more informed operational decisions.
JCB Group Managing Director – Global Aftersales, Mario Moser, said: “Customers are increasingly looking for ways to reduce operating costs, improve machine utilisation and maintain safe, efficient worksites. JCB LiveLink continues to evolve to support those objectives.
“The latest developments reflect the growing range of users who rely on machine information across modern operations. Whether they are running a business, managing a fleet, overseeing a project or operating a machine themselves, customers need access to information that is relevant to their role and helps them make informed decisions.
“By helping customers make better-informed decisions, LiveLink can bring increased profitability, safer working environments and more sustainable machine operation.”
Greater control
JCB’s Hi-Viz Loadall telescopic handlers – the 535-125, 540-140 and 540-180 models - now benefit from enhanced remote management functionality through LiveLink.
Fleet managers can remotely adjust a range of machine settings including Auto Stop parameters, speed limit controls, IntelliSense activation, tyre pressure monitoring settings and remote PIN management.
The new functionality allows machine settings to be managed without visiting the machine, helping management teams improve operational practices, support site compliance and enhance machine security.
Tyre pressure monitoring information can also be viewed remotely, helping identify low tyre pressures that can affect fuel consumption, machine mobility and tyre life.
