Change the jaw plates on Sunday, not in the middle of a busy Tuesday.
Machine Care tracks wear parts by tonnes crushed and hours run, schedules maintenance on your off days, keeps the spares store and records diesel for every machine and vehicle. Breakdowns are logged with the cause and the cost.

Planned maintenance
Schedule greasing, oil changes, belt tension checks and part changes on your off days, with a checklist for the fitter.

About Machine Care
How does it know jaw plate wear?
From the tonnes crushed since the last change and the life you usually get from a pair. It improves as you record more changes.
Can we track hired machines?
Yes. Hired excavators and loaders are recorded with their hours, diesel and hire charges.
Can we manage spares for several plants?
Yes. On the Boulder plan, spares and maintenance are visible across all plants, with transfers between stores.
The last truck has left. Your books should close with it.
Bring one plant onto Dustystone for 30 days. Weigh real trucks, bill real customers and read the evening reconciliation on your phone before the gate shuts.
