Duratray recently launched Smart Tray 4.0. The technology allows mine operators to continually assess truck fleets and dump bodies, make decisions in real-time via data monitoring and alerts, as well as to plan preventive maintenance by looking at the history of the data, via advanced automated analytics that can quantify wear and predict failure. The information generated by the system not only helps to improve maintenance but also production and sustainability.
