TRUST ITM®

Track your future

The technology

Pioneers in undercarriage sensor technology

TRUST ITM®, the innovative undercarriage monitoring solution, provides a tracking system of vital parameters in real time, even in the toughest environments. This wireless data sharing technology enhances day-to-day operations by improving safety and productivity in the field. TRUST ITM® technology is available with two types of sensors: embedded sensors or magnetic sensors, which are included in the TRUST ITM® Mobile Kit. 

Embedded sensors

The Embedded solution is the best way to experience TRUST ITM® technology in a permanent way. TRUST ITM® components integrate temperature sensors in the relevant part, ensuring reliable real-time monitoring. 

Magnetic sensors

Designed as resistant magnets, these sensors are available in the TRUST ITM® Mobile Kit and can be conveniently applied externally to various components. An authentic “plug & play” solution, able to be easily attached to any metallic surface, even those not related to undercarriage components. Magnetic sensors are the perfect complement to the embedded solutions, and they excel in a wide range of applications.  

TRUST ITM® MOBILE KIT (TMK)

The magnetic sensors can be easily attached to any metallic surface, and the TMK can be reused on multiple machines, enhancing safety and efficiency for any crew in the field.

TRUST ITM® MOBILE KIT: all-in-one for advanced machine temperature monitoring

TRUST ITM® MOBILE KIT (TMK)

ONE SOLUTION, ENDLESS MACHINE APPLICATIONS
A ready-to-use diagnostic toolkit, equipped with smart magnetic sensors, a display, and an external receiver, monitors the temperature of critical machine parts in real-time.

Make your mining operations easier with sensorised components

TRUST ITM® improves safety and productivity through wireless sensors and cloud-based technology, providing real-time data visibility. This open system can be installed on multiple machines and on any brand of undercarriage.

Proactive

Real-time data improves time response and increases machine uptime. 

Predictive

Precise data helps to prevent failures and avoid unplanned machine downtime. 

Benefits

Empowering the mine

Push the limits of your machine’s productivity with confidence. Increase tramming efficiency by up to 50% for Excavators and Drills.   

Real-time visibility

Avoid costly breakdowns, reducing and identifying anomalies on the spot with instant, precise monitoring. 

Minimised downtime and maintenance

Plan preventive maintenance and predictive change outs with reliable on-field information-gathering. 

Increased efficiency

Easily visualise data via reports, charts, and dashboards in one place. Share them with all team members.  

System integration

​Integrate TRUST ITM® into your systems, send measured data to TrackAdvice® or a server of your choice.

Safer operations

Receive instant alert notifications of overheating rollers, eliminating the need for physical monitoring.

Lowering environmental impact

Stop the machine after a reported event, avoiding unnecessary damage and unplanned maintenance. 

Data-gathering

Empowering the operator

Give operators the tools to get instant feedback, in-cab, with an easy-to-read display. They will be able to tram more accurately with real time guidance, without the need for maintenance personnel to conduct additional machine inspections and temperature checks. 

Track Rollers

Data reading

Get instant feedback and make decisions

Data transmitted by the sensors can be read simultaneously on an “in-cabin” display and remotely via the TrackAdvice® web portal and app, which provides instant notifications whenever a component reaches a critical threshold. 

In-cabin display

It shows real-time data allowing constant monitoring of the TRUST ITM® components status. In the case of critical parameters, the display highlights the overheating on the screen and alerts the operator with a sound notification. 

TrackAdvice® portal

A cloud-based software where real-time and historical data are available in very easy-to-use dashboards. Reports available on undercarriage wear status, forecasting, maintenance planning and performance. 

TrackAdvice® mobile app

A mobile app designed to visualise the data directly from the field, in real time. The App is particularly beneficial in monitoring sensor data during an undercarriage inspection.
