Autoquip Introduces AQ Connect

NOW AVAILABLE from Autoquip– AQ Connect, new intelligent controls system.

Autoquip announces the introduction of AQ Connect, an intelligent control system available as an option with any Autoquip lift. The new AQ Connect intelligent design monitors equipment and self-diagnoses operational issues. It can also be programmed to perform a variety of tasks to integrate into a specific application and workflow.

AQ Connect intelligent technology provides customers with the capability to monitor their equipment from a local or remote communication system. Operators are notified of problems by status messages from a human machine interface (HMI) or by dashboard. A dashboard is set up through Autoquip’s web-based platform which provides customers remote access to their information to configure or re-program from the field. “In the long run, investing in an Autoquip Lift with an AQ Connect intelligent panel will save our customers time and money by providing the right information to the operator so they can diagnose and resolve the issues quickly with less downtime,” said Louis Coleman, Director of Sales & Marketing. In addition, Autoquip will offer a remote monitoring service contract where their controls engineers will access customer’s information to reprogram or resolve problems on their behalf.

Features that make AQ Connect Intelligent:

  • Self-diagnostic Capabilities
  • Safety Alerts
  • Remote Monitoring & Reporting
  • Programmable Tasks
  • Built-In System Communication

Another advantage of AQ Connect is the wide range of power supply within one panel. 20+ different HP/voltage combinations for mechanical lifts, and covers all options for Hydraulic lifts. The panel design also includes I/O expansion slots for additional functionality.
