The new Trimble Earthworks Grade Control Platform version 1.9 with support is for fully automatic guidance of excavator tiltrotator attachments and Trimble Universal Total Stations for motor graders. Full-automatic support for tiltrotators makes the attachment easy to use and learn, even for operators who have never used a tiltrotator.
Universal Total Station support allows contractors to achieve millimeter-accurate fine grading with a motor grader. Contractors can place finished grade materials more accurately and in a shorter time period, keeping material costs to a minimum and improving productivity. A semi-automatic boom and bucket control now works with tilt automatics on engcon, Rototilt and Steelwrist attachments. The combined depth and tilt autos allow an operator to easily control complex attachments to stay on grade.
