These reports lead to intelligent analysis and better decision making for a more efficient operation, lowering the cost per ton. All of this information is used to create useful reports and charts. It records the various elements of the truck cycle: load time, travel loaded, dump time, and travel empty, along with delay times. On Caterpillar Mining Trucks and large Wheel Loaders, VIMS also includes production and performance information. This improves availability, component life and production while reducing both repair cost and the risk of a catastrophic failure. If VIMS detects an impeding or abnormal condition in any of the machine's systems, it will alert the operator and instruct them to take appropriate action, whether it's modifying machine operation, notifying the shop of needed maintenance, or performing a safe shutdown of the machine. Numerous sensors are integrated into the vehicle design. Caterpillar's Vital Information Management System (VIMS) is a powerful tool for machine management that provides operators, service personnel and managers information on a wide range of vital machine functions.
