Hatz Connected Services at Conexpo in Las Vegas
Digital transformation has become a reality
10 March 2020
Motorenfabrik Hatz has redefined the use of diesel-driven machines. Connected Services has set the foundations for redesigning customers' work with regard to digitalisation, connectivity and increases in efficiency. Strength of innovation through reduced maintenance outlay or interface solutions are the highlights at Conexpo 2020.
Hatz employs augmented reality in maintenance
The cinema of the 80s and 90s laid the visionary foundations early on: the technology, which at the time was viewed as science fiction, is now becoming a reality for Hatz and its customers in the form of augmented reality. The aim is to provide employees and customers with an especially comprehensive tool using digital technology, to ensure that maintenance jobs can be completed quickly and easily. With an interactive user interface by Hatz, which can be employed in conjunction with mixed reality-ready devices such as glasses or tablets, it provides advantages, in particular for repairs as well as in education and training.

New interface solution – using data from light equipment for business processes
Connected solutions and data from interfaces will in future make customers' processes easier. Hatz Connected Services make scenarios that are familiar from the automotive and agricultural machinery industry possible without using another app. Customers are provided with all relevant engine information and analyses via multifunctional, standardised interfaces to aid efficient use of resources. The advantage for customers is obvious: For example, service technicians know about the state of the engine before they travel to the customer, meaning that they arrive best prepared for the service or maintenance. This means significant time and cost savings.
