Design the Machine Experience—Not Individual Components
Integrated hydraulic, electronic, software, and operator-control solutions for heavy equipment OEMs Today’s heavy equipment must do more, communicate more, and still feel simple for the operator to use. That means the real engineering challenge is no longer selecting individual components. It is integrating hydraulics, programmable controls, software and diagnostics into one machine system that performs […]

Ethernet Connection Options for Heavy Equipment Programming and Diagnostics
Programming mobile equipment and industrial machinery requires easy, but secure access to your central control architecture, both when a machine is still on the production floor and after it’s been deployed into the field. It may seem like a small detail, but selecting the proper Ethernet connection strategy ensures reliable communication while eliminating costly field […]

Programming Safety into Machine Control Systems
From increased visibility with advanced camera systems, to alerts and operator presence features, machine safety continues to be an area of constant focus & improvement for heavy equipment OEMs. But what are some simple ways that machine safety can be designed directly into the control system without making large investments into new components or larger […]

How to Switch Between ISO and SAE in an IQAN® Program
A machine may need both ISO and SAE controls so it can serve more operators, more markets, and more job sites without requiring a different machine build for each preference. That flexibility also helps reduce training time and lowers the chance of operator error when someone sits in a machine configured differently than they expect. […]

Streamlining Efficiency: Modular Cab Design for Multi-Tier Machine Lines
“One piece of equipment that’s always the same, plug and play operation.” Designing a single cab that works across multiple tiers within a machine line gives heavy equipment OEMs a powerful way to simplify engineering, accelerate production, and reduce lifecycle costs. Standardizing around one modular cab architecture also makes it easier to introduce new options […]
