ConSite Mine Scan is Hitachi Construction Machinery's official inspection app for customers who have a ConSite contract or a GeS ID. ConSite Mine Scan supports your mining operations. Measurement results of undercarriage parts can be managed as digital data and visual reports can be created. In the unlikely event that repairs are necessary, you can contribute to reducing the life cycle costs of the machinery by making easy-to-understand replacement proposals in advance. In addition, by combining this with information from ConSite data reports, it is possible to make proposals based on the machinery's operating status. The created reports are instantly linked to Hitachi Construction Machinery's Global e-Service, allowing you to share inspection results.
