Implementing Digitalization, IoT 4.0 & Automation to improve reliability, safety, and productivity.
The increasing digitalization of the construction and mining industry is an area that will be key in facilitating and enhancing many of the carbon-reducing power options such as alternative fuelling, hydrogen, and electrification that Parker provides motion and control solutions for. At bauma 2022, we will be demonstrating our latest technologies that can help construction and mining automate and digitalize their machinery to maximize the benefits that IoT 4.0 is bringing to the wider industrial arena. This will include next-generation, cloud-based equipment, and hydraulic monitoring solutions specifically designed to provide sophisticated data, monitoring, and performance control capabilities: from telematics and location tracking to remote diagnostics and programming. With digitalized, IoT-capable, and in many instances autonomous mobile machinery, off-road equipment OEMs and fleet managers can collect and analyze data to identify usage trends and field-based problems with unparalleled intellectual design and operational insight – improving reliability, safety, and productivity by listening to the voice of the machine.
Mobile IoT
With operations and equipment often located in hard-to-get-to or hazardous places, construction and mining is an industry that derives most value from digital connectivity. Parker’s Mobile IoT is a next-generation, end-to-end hardware, cloud-based equipment, and hydraulic monitoring solution. Specifically created to provide sophisticated data, monitoring, and performance control capabilities, it is designed to optimize the performance, efficiency, and productivity of vehicle hydraulics and other onboard systems. With features like Parker Discovery and Diagnostics and IoT Impact Detection and the ability to be fully integrated with controllers, Mobile IoT not only provides constant visibility to improve scheduled maintenance and decrease downtime but also increases safety and profitability.
Connected Machine Control
Connectivity, control, and automation are three key areas that are going to become increasingly important to construction and mining as it continues to evolve into a zero-emission industry of the future. Parker can offer OEMs and designers fast application development and complete solutions for control, connection, and sensoring. These utilize world-class components and software and cover the entire spectrum of control, display, joystick, and sensor systems and feature easy-to-implement programming architecture and easy-to-commission components - all prepared and ready for the challenges and technologies of the future. Designed specifically to cope with the harsh outdoor environments encountered by the industry these connectivity solutions feature ruggedized mobile applications sensors that allow for reliable control and connect for easy on-site and remote diagnostics. They are ready for the next generation of user interfaces and have safety-certified modules with scalable design and allow integrated solutions for multiple HMI functions. Providing a user-friendly application development platform with safe, robust components, IQAN technology, full-color touch screens, and CAN and video interfaces built-in, Parker’s connected machine control systems make all the difference when it comes to staying informed and in control in the harshest operating environments.
Smart & Connected
For the construction and mining industry to maximize the technological benefits afforded by advances in mobile machine connectivity, they require the most up-to-date digital and connected solutions. Incorporating cutting-edge smart software - to fully enable the latest digitalization and IoT innovations – Parker has a range of solutions utilizing pre-configured components with built-in sensors to create a world of connected services that can integrate controllers with Parker's IoT Gateways. Among the many capabilities that these systems provide are: driving actionable insights with plug-and-play components, programming tools to improve machine health and performance, and creating IoT gateways. This last ability connects machine data with the cloud for secure over-the-air diagnostics that allows troubleshooting and diagnosis in real-time, which can help improve service scheduling and so reduce downtime. With its world-class tools and software, like Parker Tracking System (PTS) for easy product identification, coupled with best-in-class service, Parker’s smart and connected solutions allow the most up-to-date monitoring and control of hydraulic and electric components in a platform or vehicle from a single control infrastructure.
