Built on trust: a lasting partnership

Hitting 1,000 installed units is no small feat — especially when it reflects years of close collaboration and technical innovation. KAESER Compressors, a global leader in compressed air and vacuum systems, recently reached this milestone with the rollout of their 1,000th telematics control unit in partnership with Proemion. The achievement was marked at bauma, the world’s leading trade fair for construction machinery, and stands as a clear sign of a partnership that keeps delivering results. 

This development is more than just numbers; it is a vivid demonstration of what can be achieved through a solid foundation of trust, advanced technology, and shared objectives. For KAESER, it also reaffirms their commitment to meeting evolving customer demands by jointly leveraging Proemion’s cutting-edge telematics solutions.

At bauma, we celebrated this milestone together with Marco Hertz (CRO, Proemion), Robert Michaelides (CEO, Proemion), Thomas Kaeser (CEO, KAESER) and Matthias Ruppel (Key Account Manager, Proemion)

When Vision Meets Technology 

KAESER first partnered with Proemion when their customers, primarily rental companies, began demanding reliable solutions for monitoring and maintaining equipment remotely. By integrating Proemion's Global Connectivity system, KAESER elevated its offerings, enabling customers to access pre-installed telematics solutions immediately.  

This partnership has transformed how KAESER’s customers manage their rental fleets, ensuring that equipment functions reliably and efficiently across diverse job sites. The collaboration between these two global players demonstrates a shared commitment to delivering premium-quality, high-value solutions built for resilience and user satisfaction. 

By using telematics hardware, KAESER helps its customers to optimize operations and costs and, of course, to plan and carry out service optimally at almost any location. KAESER offers advanced technology that our customers can choose from for all electronically controlled MOBILAIR systems.

From fleet data to real impact

Telematics is often associated solely with classic fleet management, but as KAESER and Proemion's collaboration shows, its applications go far beyond traditional boundaries. Their innovative technologies empower equipment owners to track and optimize their fleets.

Key features and benefits of Proemion-powered telematics for KAESER  

  • Remote error analysis: 
    Customers gain access to the Proemion DataPortal, enabling them to remotely monitor the status of their machines and identify critical issues before they escalate. This level of foresight minimizes costly downtime and ensures operational continuity.
  • Enhanced maintenance precision: 
    Through GPS localization, on-site repairs and maintenance are expedited. With machine data available remotely, technicians can determine whether spare parts are required in advance, reducing unnecessary callbacks and service delays.
  • Insights for innovation: 
    The continuously generated machine data provides a dual advantage. Not only does it support day-to-day operations, but it also informs KAESER’s development of new equipment, software updates, and service offerings.

By reshaping what it means to deliver ongoing customer value, KAESER shows that telematics is here to stay as a core component of modern machinery.  

Powered by reliability and expertise

Achieving the milestone of 1,000 installed telematics systems is not just about hitting a number; it represents the fruition of a long-term vision that both KAESER and Proemion shared from the start.  

For KAESER customers, this milestone translates into tangible benefits: 

  • Confidence in knowing their equipment is supported by intelligent systems. 
  • Greater peace of mind thanks to reliable machine performance and reduced downtime. 
  • A long-standing partnership between KAESER and Proemion, built on close collaboration and solutions that grow with changing needs.
