Cummins unveils data solution at MINExpo

By |  September 26, 2016

Cummins Inc. revealed its Data Enabled Mining Solution at MINExpo International. The system instantly delivers fault code alerts and intuitive diagnostic codes in real-time.

According to the company, the Data Enabled Mining Solution helps customers to reduce costs by extending engine life, which prevents catastrophic failures and decreases unplanned maintenance expenses. It can be used to address operational matters that would otherwise impact productivity and efficiency.

“By reducing the time to intervene on fault notifications, equipment availability can be improved and progressive damage can be avoided,” says Lori Cobb, vice president of Connected Solutions at Cummins.

The solution operates over cellular networks, and it will operate on satellite communications systems sometime in the near future, the company adds. The solution is able to stream high-frequency data that allows for 24/7 monitoring of an entire fleet.

Cummins Inc. is a corporation of complementary business units that design, manufacture, distribute and service diesel and natural gas engines and related technologies, including fuel systems, controls, air handling, filtration, emissions solutions and electrical power generation systems.
