Productivity upgrades

Productivity is measuring efficiency in completing tasks; for a company, this means getting all the important things done consistently, each day, maintaining a steady and average speed. Productivity is a critical determinant of cost efficiency.

Companies are constantly looking for ways to improve quality, reduce downtime, and increase inputs of labour, materials, energy, and purchased services. Simple changes to operating methods or processes can increase productivity.

Together, our aftersales solutions enable you to increase productivity by avoiding unnecessary downtime and extending the expected lifetime of every lift truck. A proactive approach that increases profitability today and in the long run.

This is the reason why, Konecranes has developed a variety of upgrades to help you increase the performance and productivity of your fleet. Simple upgrades that can grant a major control on operations.
