Trimble highlights next generation machine control
March 10, 2017
The manufacturer’s Android platform for excavators and dozers automates the boom and bucket, offering a 30% boost to productivity while reducing operator fatigue.
The Trimble Earthworks system now allows excavator operators using tiltrotators to use automatic machine control, which can help to boost productivity.
When tiltrotators are used with Trimble Earthworks for Excavators, the bucket position and orientation are visible regardless of bucket rotation. The operator can see the height and the rotation relative to the design, so the attachment can be more efficient. With this latest development, Trimble Earthworks can automate the tilt functions of a tiltrotator.
GPS technology offers contractors many benefits and product offerings are growing more diverse, Mike Woof reports. The benefit of GPS technology for the construction industry cannot be overstated.
Trimble says that its latest technology allows soil compactors and bulldozers to operate efficiently and productively, while delivering high quality working.
