Siteworks: Machine control module for excavators

The Trimble Siteworks surveying platform is now enhanced with a dedicated machine control module for excavators.  

In addition to being used for traditional surveying applications, your Trimble GNSS Rover and controler can be transferred to a hydraulic excavator to become a component of a 3D guidance system. A versatile and flexible solution for upgrading your small machines to 3D guidance with minimal initial investment. 

How can you benefit from this all-in-one solution? 

• Invest in a tilt compensating GNSS rover (SPS986 or R780 [internal links]) and a controler from our SPS line compatible with Trimble Siteworks [internal link]. 
• Suscribe to the Guiding option at the time of purchase – it will be activated on your data collector on the Trimble Siteworks software [internal link]. Then our team of field technicians [internal link] will quickly install the machine control kit components on your machine.  
• Transfer the GNSS rover and the controler from the surveyor rod to the machine in a matter of minutes and use them in the configuration you want: surveying or machine control. The same project model created on Trimble Siteworks is used for both applications

Benefits:  

• Fast and flexible: go from machine control to surveying and back in minutes 
• Reliability of data collection and accuracy of Trimble machine control systems in 1 tool 
• Ruggedness of a Trimble solution, designed to withstand extreme job site conditions 
• Ergonomics and ease of use of the Trimble Siteworks software interface  
• Ability to create projects in the field 
• Import and export design data in LandXML format
