This is particularly valuable for industries where drivers are required to follow pre-defined routes, such as waste management, or for avoiding accident hotspots,” Christopher said. “Webfleet maps and reports can be customised to suit preferences. The interface has also been optimised for tablets, meaning Webfleet offers greater support for flexible working, accessible now on any screen, anywhere.” Visit: telematics.tomtom.com “The Makinex Parallel Box enables you to combine the power of the Makinex 10kVA and 16kVA generators in any configuration generating between 20–32kVA with any single and/or three phase outputs,” Nathan McMillan from Makinex R&D said. “Until recently, concrete grinders and polishers only had the choice of pantech or trailer mount generators to power their machines and these options don’t always provide power where you need it. “A key challenge for work sites can be restricted and/or tight access and large stationary generators don’t have the flexibility to move around to where you need power. Also, you want to transport and park all your machinery so it’s easily accessible so a compact power supply is crucial," Nathan said. The Makinex Research and Development (R&D) team recognised the industry Makinex has launched the Parallel Box that works in conjunction with Makinex generators to provide machines with 20kva to 32kVA of power where and when needed. Parallel Box combines generator power needed another larger kVA generator option which was compact and portable. “We wanted to create a power source that could service heavy duty equipment. This power source needed to be portable, be generally less expensive than larger units to buy, transport and store.” This led to the creation of the Makinex Generator range and Makinex Parallel Box. The Makinex Parallel Box combines the power from 10kVA and 16kVA to operate a three phase concrete grinder and single phase dust extractor. Makinex Generators are compact, portable power supply systems in 6kVA, 10kVA and 16kVA with Magnetic Flux Technology. “Comprehensive field testing with the Makinex Generator range has proven its ability to respond to varying power loads over long periods of time for a range of large and small machines,” Nathan said Visit: www.makinex.com.au EQUIPMENT MCS RENTAL SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS Built to help your business grow and thrive www.mcsanz.com.au CALL US ON +61 (2) 9477 1355 Visit our website to discover why you should choose MCS as your trusted software partner.
