The metrics that JCB LiveLink delivers enables you to manage your fleet more effectively and plan maintenance in advance.

What’s more, your LiveLink is linked to Hamilton Brothers with advanced diagnostic technology so our engineers can come to your assistance quicker to ensure your machines are fully operational and back onsite earning you money!

With accurate monitoring of machine hours and service alerts, you can enjoy improved maintenance planning. Livelink allows us to prioritise engineers and routine services, saving time and resources.
Technical alerts and maintenance history data helps manage your machine health. Early warnings or incorrect machine operation and poor daily maintenance along with detailed machine history enables you to plan what work is needed on your machine before it returns to your yard. LiveLink ensures maximum uptime and return on investment.
For the rental customer, detailed machine hours, machine faults and machine malpractice are recorded remotely, helping you process your machine quicker for quick turnaround.
Not only does LiveLink help increase your machines efficiency but it can also work to improve profitability. Livelink lowers servicing and running costs by ensuring your machines are operated to their optimum performance, reducing fuel consumption and unnecessary machine wear. By monitoring idle time and real time fuel consumption, LiveLink helps manage whole life cost of ownership, driving down costs, driving up productivity.
Understanding what work is required for your machine before it comes back to the yard allows rental customers to turn around machines quicker, greatly enhancing rental revenue. LiveLink also helps manage chargeable hours, as you are able to see how your machine has been utilised.
What’s more, Real-Time Machine Location, we can see when your machinery moves out of predetermined zones while curfew alerts inform us of unauthorised usage. This helps protect your JCB from theft!
Real time curfew and tow away alerts inform you immediately when a machine is switched on or moved. The LiveLink unit has its own internal battery, so is able to keep tracking the machine, even without the engine switched on.
Remote PIN enabled machines allows for remote changing of the immobiliser pin code to prevent unauthorised use.
Your LiveLink will be put up for renewal five years and, for ease of use, JCB will renew LiveLink for you automatically! However, we will ensure to send you a reminder before if you wish to opt out.
