Trimble Grade Control for Excavators
Maximize efficiency for your excavator with the Trimble Earthworks platform. This construction technology is an easy-to-use, economical and flexible way to improve productivity and cost savings. Whether you’re preparing the worksite or completing a heavy-duty earthmoving project, you’ll benefit from having this system in place.
Excavate More Efficiently With the Next-Gen Technology of Trimble Earthworks
Ready to add augmented reality capabilities to your excavating projects? SITECH Intermountain is your source for the Trimble Earthworks system for excavators. The grade control platform display brings 3D models into the real-world environment, making it easy to understand where you need to cut and fill. This state-of-the-art software allows operators to:
- Use automatic excavator control to create smooth, sloped surfaces.
- Work faster with 3D modeling and real-time data.
- Improve situational awareness with a true-to-life scale of the work area.
New! Augmented Reality for Excavators
Operators can now view 3D models in a real-world environment at a true-life scale, in the context of existing surroundings. On the Trimble Earthworks Grade Control Platform display, the model is overlaid onto existing ground giving the operator a better understanding of the work that needs to be done. Visibility of the bucket gives operators better situational awareness to be able to keep surrounding people and objects safer. Users can easily understand 3D models, cut/fill information, slope data and other bench points and reference points in context, without the need to interpret complex 2D plans or stakes.
3D Excavator Grade Control
The 3D Earthworks system is designed for excavators with tilt or standard buckets for mass excavation work.
Flexibility for Many Environments
The Trimble 3D system is flexible for use with total stations or global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). Get precise accuracy for excavation down to the bucket’s teeth. The angle sensors and GNSS receivers measure the 3D precision of the teeth, simplifying the process of finishing slopes and making complex excavation more efficient.
Excavator Automatics
Trimble Earthworks is integrated with grade control automatics for excavators and tilt rotators. This automation ensures excavator depth control, consistent grading and smoother surfaces.
Applications
The 3D grade control for excavators is suitable for these mass excavation applications:
- Landfills and waste deposits
- Land reclamation
- New infrastructure projects
- Dam and reservoir construction
- Highway construction
Trimble Earthworks 2D Excavator System
Trimble 2D excavator grade control technology improves the productivity and profitability of excavation in earthmoving projects. This construction technology:
- Enables excavator depth control to guide bucket teeth location to the correct slope and depth.
- Uses sensors and lasers to measure body, bucket, stick and boom locations for location accuracy.
- Allows contractors to leverage the benefits of grade control technology, with the option to upgrade to the 3D system.
The Trimble Earthworks 2D grade control is ideal for these applications:
- Trenches
- Dredging and waterways
- Road construction
- Ditches
- Digging footers and basements
- Residential and commercial sites
- Finished slope work
