Cummins Announces New Advanced Remote Monitoring Solution for Mining
April 9, 2019 - Cummins Inc. (CMI) has announced the release of PrevenTech™ for Mining, a new digital monitoring and reporting solution that provides advanced detection of potential equipment health issues.
PrevenTech’s continuous analysis helps mitigate performance impacts and improve mine site productivity by streamlining maintenance and service planning.
PrevenTech for Mining applies connectivity, big data, and advanced analytics to engine hardware, to help identify and diagnose performance issues faster and more accurately using the latest internet-of-things (IoT) technology and global security standards. Available with three distinct service levels, PrevenTech offers the flexibility to support unique site operations.
