Dispatch for Loading

Dispatch for Loading provides loader operators with a list of jobs by truck, material, and target payload, improving loadout accuracy and reducing truck waiting times in the yard.

Cat Productivity - Dispatch for Loading

DESCRIPTION

Dispatch for Loading is a module within Cat® Productivity that integrates with your scale house check-in software. It provides loader operators with a list of jobs by truck, material, and target payload - improving loadout accuracy and reducing truck waiting times in the yard.

How It Works

  • Dispatch for Loading is a module within Cat® Productivity 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

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.
  • 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.
