Features

How It Works

          
    • Dispatch for Loading is a module within VisionLink® that integrates with your scale house check-in software to centralize yard communication with your wheel loader operators.
      •     
    • After trucks check in at the scale house, Dispatch for Loading provides the loader operator(s) a list of jobs by zone, truck ID, material, payload target, and truck time since check-in.
      •     
    • Helps ensure that the right truck is loaded with the right amount of material while minimizing loading times and avoiding zone backups.
    How It Works

Deliver Results

          
    • Reduce Truck Waiting Time - For each truck onsite, loader operators know what material and how much to load.
      •     
    • Improve Accuracy - Precise payload targets eliminate over and under-loading with Cat Payload technologies.
      •     
    • Increase Efficiency - Use daily performance data to identify training opportunities for loader operators.
      •     
    • Enhance Yard Safety - Avoid falls from exiting vehicles, being injured by another vehicle, or being hit by falling materials.
      •     
    • Reduce Costs - Save on time, labor, and fuel costs.
      •     
    • Maximize Profits - Faster cycle times allow more trucks to pass through the yard daily, increasing revenue opportunities.

Wheel Loader Display

          
    • Loader operators can view a list of trucks by ID, zone, material, and target payload and see the truck time since entering the yard.
      •     
    • Dispatch for Loading works with Advanced Payload, which is integrated into next generation Cat wheel loaders.
      •     
    • Cat Payload technologies deliver precise bucket load information with on-the-go weighing, which helps prevent over or underloading.

    NOTE: Payload technologies are not legal for trade.

Manager Dashboard

          
    • The cloud-based Dispatch for Loading dashboard provides an overview of daily operations and allows users to monitor day-to-day progress based on key performance indicators.
      •     
    • Some of the key indicators include:
          
    1. Loaders - The total number of loaders available at the jobsite and active loaders currently loading.
      2.     
    2. Waiting to Load - The number of trucks waiting to be loaded at the jobsite.
      3.     
    3. Completed - The number of trucks that have been loaded and have checked out at the scale house.
      4.     
    4. Average Truck Time - Displays the time spent by trucks onsite, waiting to load, loading, and waiting to complete.
