Acme Lift Co., Mesa, Ariz., has outfitted its fleet of aerial work platforms and telehandlers with compact, second-generation Topcon Tierra telematics devices from Topcon Positioning Systems Inc., Livermore, Calif. The devices gather machine locations, operating hours and engine information, sift raw machine data, and provide immediate alerts and reports.
“With 100 percent of our fleet tracked by Topcon Tierra, we have real-time visibility to not only pinpoint the location, but the ability to manage our maintenance intervals and automate the scheduling of our maintenance, annual inspections and transportation activities, which equates to a better overall experience for our customers,” said Steve Nadelman, Acme Lift president and chief operating officer.
Topcon Tierra provides security features and generates reports that make it easier for Acme Lift to continue to deliver reliable, late-model machines to customers. The system’s hardware capabilities can be upgraded via the cell phone network worldwide. The devices are coupled with Tierra Web Service, an Internet-based user interface that enables users to generate reports and configure alerts.
Lift & Access is part of the Catalyst Communications Network publication family.
