A more efficient fleet
Make your spreader smart and control the spreading remotely
Bucher Assist is the innovative two-way satellite monitoring service designed by Bucher Municipal, a project funded by ESA (European Space Agancy) following a European tender won by our group. The installation of the system allows, through the man-machine collaboration, to reduce operating costs and management costs, to reduce the environmental impact and the workload of the operators in charge of the winter service, increasing their safety.
Thanks to the cloud platform it will be possible to remotely control the activity of the spreaders and to dosage the necessary quantity of salt according to the real conditions of the road.
Bucher Assist increases performance
Assist's automations allow direct action on spreading parameters. The operators interviewed say they feel safer driving because they no longer have to worry about selecting the amount of salt spread and the asymmetry of the disc.
Tests have shown that the amount of salt spread is dramatically reduced during snowfall by up to nearly 50 %, with positive consequences for safety, cost control and environmental impact.
Bucher Assist can become your best ally during the winter!

Satellite localization
Real-time monitoring of your fleet with integrated GPS
Thanks to the hardware component installed in the machine's control panel, it will be possible to easily monitor your fleet from a remote location and set functional parameters such as dosing, width, asymmetry, humidification, travel speed. Very useful is the function that allows you to view the weather conditions related to the operating sites to better dose the parameters.
Human-Machine Collaboration
Increase the efficiency of your winter maintenance service with automation
With the dedicated Assist software it is possible to automate spreading and navigation operations, thus simplifying the activities of the operator who can concentrate more on driving. Interesting is the patented geofencing feature with which it will be possible to divide the territory into homogeneous areas for conditions and parameters, thus making the spreading more accurate and precise, reducing operating costs and environmental impact.
Reports and strategy
With a few clicks you can have everything under control
The Assist software is designed to elaborate treatment strategies: the system allows to elaborate, on the basis of the acquired data, treatment strategies to simplify and support decision makers in the implementation of the best operational solutions. All this is supported by the creation of work reports or analysis on Excel files for the elaboration of forecasts and accounting for the monitoring of materials.
Continuous access to operating and usage data enables drivers and fleet managers to optimally utilize vehicles, thereby reducing miles driven, equipment wear, salt and energy consumption, and preventing breakdowns by simplifying repairs.
The control of vehicles given by new technologies allows fleet managers to quickly identify and manage problems. In addition, our service department can quickly access your operational data to perform fault diagnostics on any vehicle in question, providing you with quick solutions and improving uptime.
