Marine Terminals operate a varied and expensive selection of wheeled handling equipment from:
- RTG’s
- Straddle Carriers
- Front Loaders
- Empty Lifters
- Fork Lift trucks
- Yard Hustlers
- Chassis
Terminals need their handling equipment in peak operating performance and require them to be operational 24×7 365 days a year. Scheduled maintenance is essential and down time a problem when the terminal is at the peak of operations. The enTIRE asset tracking applications help the terminal’s technical team to manage and maintain every aspect of their equipment’s tyres and rims. Tyres are an expensive consumable with prices ranging from 2,500 to 5,000 USD each for individual straddle carrier or RTG tyres. With large facilities operating sizable fleets of handling equipment tyre expenses can be a significant annual capital expenditure.
