Doosan Smart X-Care
Doosan Infracore North America has launched a subscription-based telematics monitoring service, supported by a new machine monitoring center at its Suwanee, Georgia, headquarters. The machine monitoring center is staffed by Doosan employees who will monitor subscribers’ DoosanConnect Telematics systems and send them email and push notifications if their construction equipment needs attention. Smart X-Care:
- allows Doosan employees to watch for critical machine fault codes, upcoming and overdue service and warranty expirations
- enables Doosan to send machine alerts to both the owner and the dealer via email and push notifications
- is currently only available for newly purchased Doosan construction equipment—free for customers for six months after a machine purchase and $19.99 per month after
