How GK’s VERTEX™ Works
Accelerometers are attached to key places on your vibratory equipment and report back data to you and GK’s Field Service Department. All information is stored on the sensor, thereby offering a quick overview of the unit.
The data is reviewed and any potential issues can be diagnosed by General Kinematics’ Field Service technicians who are trained to provide recommendations on optimal equipment performance.
Lastly, reports are available to you to view VERTEX™ records, reports, schedule and more.
