GOMACO has updated its sophisticated G+ control system

The G+ Connect is GOMACO’s latest proprietary CAN-based network products allowing fast, two-way communication between all accessories and the G+ controller. This closed-loop control system for the electronics and hydraulics links the paver’s valves and various sensors and delivers high accuracy. The system is said to allow tighter, faster, and more accurate machine corrections and improves communications between components for precision setup and paving.

GOMACO has developed a sophisticated new paving control
The G+ Connect is 218 Gomaco’s latest proprietary CAN-based network products allowing fast, two-way communication between all accessories and the G+ controller. This closed-loop control system for the electronics and hydraulics links the paver’s valves and various sensors and delivers high accuracy. The system is said to allow tighter, faster, and more accurate machine corrections and improves communications between components for precision setup and paving. The G+ Connect uses the G+ control system and GOMACO’s new paving software. The system includes leg positioning, paving speed and percentage of drive, steering, travel information, grade information and deviation meters and also offers a detailed fault history. The system allows all the components of a GOMACO paver to be interfaced, including 3D stringless control, IDBI, tie bar inserter (TBI), power transition adjustors and GOMACO Smoothness Indicator (GSI) for example. The software has been developed in-house by GOMACO’s own control specialists. The system is now offered on the firm’s 2800 paver as well as other models in the range.

    MOBA continues to develop its novel MDS-2000 drilling system. This package has already proven itself in use for blast hole drilling in many operations and can now be used to record the orientation of the machine with GNSS antennae and the height using laser reference. With telesupport, MOBA also offers fast service through an Internet connection. By recording the machine orientation using two GNSS antennae, the torsion on the machine can be determined with very high accuracy and included in the calculation
