Chepstow Plant has bought nine Bell B30Es, two B35Ds and two B40Ds.
鈥淲e purchased our first Bell ADT back in 2000 because of the safety features it provided,鈥� said managing director John Corcoran. 鈥淪ixteen years later, we鈥檙e still placing our confidence in Bell machines, which continue to be safe, secure and reliable.鈥�
Adding to the machines鈥� appeal is Bell Equipment鈥檚 Fleetm@tic technology, installed in both new and existing Bell models being used by Chepstow Plant.聽 The technology provides the Chepstow Plant operational team with automated reports, alerts, production data and satellite coverage.
鈥淔濒别别迟尘蔼迟颈肠, Bell Equipment鈥檚 purpose designed, on-board fleet management system, provides us with an effective tool which, when used continuously, can help deliver the lowest cost per tonne, to maximise returns on investment to us and our clients,鈥� Mr Corcoran said.
鈥淲e have also been instrumental in the ongoing development of Fleetm@tic, working directly with Bell in South Africa to further enhance the system and the extent to which it can be used.聽 Most recently we have been looking how it can support site and operator safety.聽 This has resulted in the system being able to monitor not just a machine鈥檚 production performance but also vital safety elements, such as physical stability and tipping points.鈥�
