Using robotic total stations and Millimeter GPS, Topcon’s ZS100 combines two existing technologies to give operators fewer set-ups, fewer instruments – and a much simpler job site
Around 1,500 tonnes of reinforcement for casting the concrete tunnel elements are produced weekly for the 17.6km Fehmarn Belt Tunnel that will connect the Danish island of Lolland with the German island of Fehmarn.
Vögele is extending its range of service and training options for users with the introduction of a new app and web facility. This is said to allow paving crews to get to grips with the ErgoPlus 3 operating concept quickly and easily with the aid of numerous animations.
The tool allows users to learn how to position and adjust the screed, as well as retrieve paving programmes. Using the system allows operators to achieve optimum paving results and efficient job site processes, according to the firm. The sy
Trimble is offering new advances in machine control technology – Mike Woof writes
An important technology advance from Trimble is now coming from its expanding range of EarthWorks machine control systems. These systems can help deliver more efficient earthmoving operations, increasing productivity while maintaining accuracy.
The first EarthWorks system was developed for use with excavators and this latest system is designed to be used with dozers, utilising much of the same hardware. Meanwhile, other Ea
