342 Topcon Positioning Group’s intelligent compaction system is now available for aftermarket integration.

The C-63 intelligent compaction control system works on soil and asphalt rollers.

“The aftermarket intelligent compaction kits will provide more contractors the ability to compete for jobs with IC requirements, or to simply perform more efficiently,” said Kris Maas, director of machine control product management.

The GPS-based C-63 allows the operator to collect and use data in real time for stiffness, density and temperature control, helping solve compaction issues.

The graphical display tracks cumulative compaction through the recording and mapping of each pass and provides a colour-coded status view. The C-63 can be used as a standalone system or within the Topcon Sitelink3D Enterprise site management system, which allows operators to see the work already performed by other machines. This feature is designed to prevent machines from travelling over surfaces already compacted to their required amounts.
