The scalable platform <strong>networks individual machines or entire fleets<\/strong> into a smart overall system and opens up new possibilities for efficient, data-supported waste disposal management.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Intelligent machine control in real time<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>BaleConnect records and transmits <strong>Operating data such as run times, number of bales, baling cycles and status messages in real time<\/strong> - with a particular focus on user-friendliness. The data can be accessed via a web-based dashboard, regardless of whether the machines are located in the same plant or at different sites. Automated push notifications in the event of faults or maintenance requirements enable an immediate response.

This allows potential for improvement to be identified and utilised in a targeted manner.<\/p>\n<p>Data collected over the long term can also be analysed to track seasonal developments or evaluate optimisation measures.
