Cobble tracker
Battery-Powered GPS Trackers for Non-Powered Assets
Not every asset has a power source. Trailers, plant equipment, and machinery operate without a vehicle connection. Ctrack's battery-powered GPS trackers use long-life lithium cells rated for up to 10 years of daily location updates.
The Cobble tracker attaches to any asset. No wiring. No installation downtime. Once deployed, it transmits position data to the Crystal platform automatically.
Connectivity runs on 4G Cat-M1 across New Zealand, including One NZ and Spark networks. Location data updates at configurable intervals to a web or mobile dashboard.
- 4G Cat-M1 connectivityCoverage across NZ including One NZ and Spark networks, optimised for rural areas and remote job sites
- Up to 10-year battery lifeDaily updates for 10 years, hourly updates for 7 years on a single lithium cell with no replacement needed
- IP67 weatherproof ratingRated for outdoor and remote environments, including rain, dust, and field conditions across New Zealand
Asset security
Secure Your Equipment with Advanced GPS Tracking Technology
Around 12,000 vehicles are stolen in New Zealand every year. Equipment and machinery losses run higher. Rural job sites face the greatest exposure, with slower response times and fewer witnesses making recovery harder without GPS tracking technology in place.
A GPS tracker on every valuable asset changes this risk profile. You monitor your assets continuously. When movement falls outside expected patterns, you receive an alert. Real-time tracking data goes straight to NZ Police when you need it.
Insurers see full records of asset location alongside vehicle location in one dashboard, giving you complete visibility over all movements. That evidence supports claims reduction and can lower the cost of cover.
- Movement alertsReceive an alert the moment an asset moves outside expected hours or approved locations
- Geofence zonesCreate virtual boundaries around depots, job sites, or yards and receive instant alerts on any breach
- Insurance evidenceFull location history and movement records support claims reduction and can lower the cost of cover
Operational benefits
Benefits of Asset Tracking for NZ Businesses
Asset tracking improves visibility and control across your entire fleet. New Zealand businesses operating across multiple job sites gain complete visibility over every piece of machinery. Where it is. When it last moved. How long it has been idle.
Better visibility means you can optimise allocation decisions and save costs from equipment sitting unused in yards. Asset tracking turns equipment management into a planned activity, not a reactive one.
- Prevent theftGPS-tracked equipment recovers at 69%. Geofencing lets you create a virtual boundary around any location and receive alerts on breach
- Improve productivityReal-time location and status data shows which assets are in use, which are idle, and which can be reallocated to active sites
- Preventative maintenanceTrack usage hours and movement cycles to schedule servicing on time. Service records support HSWA obligations across your operation
