      Kobelco ties with Iridium for remote asset tracking in fleet management systems

      Staff Reporter by Staff Reporter
      November 15, 2020
      in Satellite/Comms

      The addition of the Iridium service provides KCM equipment with global coverage for the first time, while also enabling customers to request real-time reports.

      Iridium Communications has announced that Kobelco Construction Machinery (KCM), an original equipment manufacturer (OEM), has integrated Iridium’s two-way satellite communications into its hydraulic excavator machinery, heavy equipment and the KOMEXS remote asset management platform.

      The addition of the Iridium service provides KCM equipment with global coverage for the first time, along with the flexibility of programming deployed assets to provide automated recurring telematics and equipment health updates, while also enabling customers to request real-time reports.

      The KOMEXS platform provides the capability to manage multiple deployed assets across several job sites and tracks machinery health information such as working hours, engine health and fuel consumption.

      The system helps users keep track of valuable resources, manage costs, boost productivity, and proactively plan for maintenance requirements that can help increase efficiency and safety. This can also include warning alerts when deployed machinery needs servicing and geofencing to ensure machinery is deployed to the correct worksite.

      Iridium’s network is qualified for mobile telematics reporting and serves the needs of heavy equipment and construction machinery for connectivity beyond the reach of terrestrial networks. With small-form-factor devices that can be easily integrated with existing solutions like the KOMEXS platform, Iridium offers to simplify the process of adding global satellite connectivity to their partners’ services.

      KCM expects to begin shipment of vehicles equipped with Iridium Connected devices in early 2021.  Initial deployment will occur in Southeast Asian countries, followed by Russia, Central and South America and North America.

      As of Q3 2020, Iridium commercial IoT subscribers grew 20% from the year-ago period to 924,000 customers, further cementing the company’s place as the premier satellite IoT company.

      Commenting on the partnership, Bryan Hartin, executive VP, sales and marketing, Iridium said: “As the need for real-time, global communications solutions continues to increase, Iridium and KCM are delivering reliable, effective and weather-resilient connectivity for KCM’s vast customer base. This partnership solidifies Iridium’s leadership position in providing global satellite industrial-IoT communications within the heavy equipment industry.”
