Remote monitoring

Komtrax Plus

Komtrax Plus is a technologically advanced remote monitoring system that enables you to access machine-specific data from your computer or iPhone/Android Phone.

Using telemetry technology on large mining and production class machines, it enables owners and operators to evaluate each machine’s condition and operations while optimising availability, helping to prevent unscheduled downtime and reduce repair costs.
