MONITORING SYSTEMS. Monitoring
product health simplifies maintenance
planning and reduces costs.
Caterpillar Monitoring System.
The Caterpillar Monitoring System
(CMS) tracks critical machine systems
to alert the operator to potential need for
service. Three levels of warning allow
the operator to assess the situation more
accurately.
Product Link. With Product Link owners
can collect and track multiple types of
information – from machine location and
service meter hours, to health and
productivity information.
EquipmentManager. With a subscription
to EquipmentManager information from
Product Link can be transmitted to
a computer. Return on equipment
investment is optimized through
maintenance management and
improved uptime.
Machine Security System.
Stolen equipment equates to lost
production and increased costs.
Eliminate machine theft and unauthorized
usage with the Cat Machine Security
System (MSS). MSS is integrated into
the machine’s electronic system and
can protect most brands of equipment
by requiring a uniquely coded key to
start the machine.
S•O•S Services. Managing component
life and machine availability decreases
downtime while improving your
productivity and efficiency. S•O•S
Services can help you do that. Regular
fluid sampling is used to track what is
going on inside the equipment. Wear-
related problems are predictable and easily
and quickly repairable. Maintenance can
be done according to your schedule,
resulting in increased uptime and
flexibility in maintenance and repair
before failure.
PARTS AVAILABILITY. Caterpillar
provides an unsurpassed level of
personalized service for your wheel
loader. With parts distribution centers
worldwide, most parts can be delivered
in 24 hours. Easy access to parts
reduces downtime.
RESALE VALUE. Owning quality
equipment is a very important factor in
maintaining resale value. Caterpillar not
only supplies quality equipment but also
provides product and dealer support to
maintain the reliability and durability
of your machine.
Customer Support Agreements.
A Customer Support Agreement (CSA)
is any arrangement between you and your
Cat dealer that helps you lower your total
cost per unit of production. CSAs are
flexible, allowing them to be tailored
to your business. They can range from
simple Preventive Maintenance Kits to
sophisticated Total Cost Performance
Guarantees. Having a CSA with your
Cat dealer allows you more time to do
what you do best – run your business.
