1228 Moba Mobile Automation, based in Limburg, Germany, has formed an earthmoving division concentrating on Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Moba develops and manufactures measurement and control technology, identification and weighing systems for construction machines and waste disposal vehicles. Andreas Velten, head of the division, said the move means Moba can provide optimal service and support at regional level, particularly for small and medium-sized construction companies and construction machinery dealers. Many larger earthwork projects such as motorways and embankments are already planned and created digitally in 3D. For these particular tasks, Moba supplies 3D machine controllers for excavators, dozers and graders.
