TcConnect's GPS geolocates your car in real time and alerts you in case of suspicious movements, preventing the risk of theft.
Construction machinery thefts: chip crisis and black market for spare parts
It is a phenomenon that is growing, especially for machinery that is worth between 80 and 300 thousand euros. The construction machinery is stolen by the hirers, who report serious economic losses together with their customers on site, who also suffer from the difficulty in continuing the work operationally, causing delays and interruptions to the companies.

Until last year the cars were stolen and taken abroad to be resold. The most recent trend instead sees stolen vehicles dismantled and illegally resold in pieces. Above all, the larger vehicles are dismembered to favor the market for electronic components and chips, parts that are currently difficult to find and therefore attractive to criminals.
In this context, it is easy to understand that often it is not the complete vehicles that are stolen, but the individual accessories directly: the excavators are stripped of their buckets or shovels and the hooks of the telehandlers disappear, even when the machines are stopped at the who rents them.
Protect yourself from theft of construction machinery: GPS localization
The critical trend in theft has led workers in the sector to opt for effective solutions to protect their assets.
GPS tracking technology has proven effective in combating and solving the problem of theft, helping companies not only locate machines, but also recover them and equipment.
The features that allow GPS to be decisive are many and are all based on the possibility of providing operators and renters with a series of information in real time to intervene quickly in the event of unforeseen events:
– Real-time monitoring: thanks to satellite signals, GPS technology makes it possible to precisely determine the position of vehicles and equipment in real time. This information can be viewed at any time from any device, smartphone, tablet or computer. Excavator electro lifting magnet
– Real-time alerts: the possibility of setting real-time alerts, which are activated on the basis of various circumstances or events, such as the suspicious movement of a vehicle, allow information on the position of the moving vehicle to be sent almost instantly to the police, to facilitate the recovery of the stolen property
– Geofencing: it is also possible to configure an imaginary boundary (which can be an entire construction site, for example) beyond which vehicles and equipment cannot move. If the GPS detects one of the machines leaving this designated area, you will be notified immediately.
TcConnect GPS technology: geolocation and security
Tecnoter Group has developed its own geolocation system via an online platform: TcConnect.
TcConnect, as written in this article, allows you to communicate, control and manage all the characteristics of the construction machinery, equipment and vehicles that are connected to it.
In addition to receiving alerts on the position or on unexpected movements, TcConnect improves safety for the site and for the operators. The system is in fact able to distinguish between regular or incorrect driving of the vehicle by the driver and to report safety problems that involve not only the operator but also other road users.
