Machine Efficiency on 21st century Level

In our current times, it is no longer enough to just have the perfect device. As important are its current “health status” as well as further information about use, maintenance and service. Always the relevant information, at the right time and in the right place. 

This means you can achieve maximum uptime for your devices with as little administration effort as possible.

BENEFITS AT ONE GLANCE 

  • Less administration 
    The necessary documentation such as spare parts catalogs, machine configuration documents, etc. can be accessed with one click and are displayed in a central view. 
     

  • Financial success 
    More equipment uptime and fewer unforeseeable downtimes resulting in better financial results for the company! 
     

  • Improved efficiency 
    Send the right machine to the construction site by simulating the specific application in advance with the JOB PLANNER*. By defining the support situation and the necessary load cases, it is possible to provide a detailed operational planning in advance.  
    (* only for loading crane) 
     

  • Complete control 
    Stay up to date on your entire PALFINGER fleet at all times and keep an overview
