To achieve the maximum machine performance, intuitive operation and easy access to all relevant information is required. This is why we developed SPECTIVE. With SPECTIVE CONNECT, we now bring this operating concept to the excavator - nearer to our operator. This means that work does not need to be interrupted to check the machine status. This is not only more convenient and safer, it also saves time. The full potential of the machine can thus be exploited and the productivity increased. All important process data such as production volume and fuel consumption are compiled in a clearly arranged dashboard and report and can then be transmitted. We use secure communication between smartphone and machine for this purpose. More knowledge means a higher output. An overview of SPECTIVE CONNECT: • In a customizable dashboard, you will find all data that you want to keep an eye on during production. Now you no longer need to leave the excavator or wheel loader to monitor speeds, settings and fill levels. • Malfunctions cannot always be avoided, but now you find out immediately via push messages what is wrong in your machine and you also receive instructions for eliminating the fault if necessary. You decide yourself if you really have to get out. • At the end of work, you want to know what your KLEEMANN SPECTIVE crushing plant has produced in a day, week or month? Have all the production data, such as average fuel consumption and crushed tonnage*, displayed in a clearly laid report. This can then be sent off very easily on your smartphone** • The Smart Job Configurator helps you to select and enter the right machine settings - regardless of the application. This saves time, provides safety and ensures a high-quality end product with the lowest possible wear and fuel consumption. • With Tool Management, the crushing tools of the machine and their wear can be documented in SPECTIVE CONNECT. • Stockpile Monitoring keeps track of your stockpile levels and informs you when it's time to clear them* * Only compatible with original KLEEMANN accessories ** Internet connection required. Provider-dependent transmission costs may be involved Questions? Bugs? Write to an spective.connect@kleemann.info . We will be glad to help you! You really like this app? Tell us about it!

Superior, high-performance tools to increase measurement efficiency and overall productivity. When evaluating polished concrete, with Runyon Data Services – you will know it’s been done right! HOW IT WORKS: ‣ Runyon Data Services is the most effective tool on the market to take measurements, compare readings, and store accurate data on polished concrete floor work. Our unique proprietary system consists of three components: -The App -The Meters -The Bridge This is how it works. First, the tandem meters take a full array of precise measurements on the polished concrete floor. Then, using our patent-pending technology, the Runyon bridge processes those measurements, converting readings into functional data to send wirelessly to the app. Finally, the Runyon app displays the information for immediate review and use, effortless dissemination, and long-term storage. ‣ With such functional data at your fingertips, verifying the quality of a polished concrete floor job is now a breeze! No matter how many samples are required, this is all done with a simple push of a button on the app. The days of crouching down, bending, and kneeling for each sample are over. When you are ready to take another reading, just roll the integrated cart to your next sample location and press that button again. Not only is Runyon Data Services incredibly convenient, but with the instant ability to confirm contractor adherence to specs, you can easily standardize both polishing and appearance throughout multiple facilities. EQUIPMENT NEEDED: Roughness Meter: This is our roughness meter. In short, it is an instrument that precisely measures the texture of a surface. How does this relate to polished concrete? Based on the readings, you can determine the exact degree to which a concrete floor has been ground and polished. This is completely independent of appearance, which is critical because with various guards and sealers, initial appearances upon completion can be deceiving. Runyon Bridge: Our self-powered processor functions as the “nervous system” of the operation, connecting the meters wirelessly to the Runyon app. Runyon App: This is the “brains” of the system, as it takes the combined meter data from the Runyon bridge and puts it to specific use by creating a “Field Report.” Field Report: The field report is a compilation of all measurements and data collected by both meters in one, easy-to-read package. Not only does it display samples and averages, but it contains additional information to include: photos, signatures, date/time, location, contractor information and a QA checklist. The document is both immediately accessible and available for long term use and storage. It can also be messaged, emailed and/or printed at a simple press of a button in the app. Runyon Data Services cart: Our integrated cart that lets you roll the system between sample areas without bending or lifting. Runyon Data Services case: The entire Runyon Data Services System fits into our durable, rolling case for easy transportation. In addition, it’s the perfect size for an airline carry on. ‣ The comfort and ease of Runyon Data Services will amaze you.
