GPS Machine Control Modeling

accept and complete more projects with confidence and proficiency.

While the productivity of construction sites used to depend largely on traditional, labour intensive profile & traveller setting out methodologies and the right heavy-duty equipment operators,  the use of 3D machine control modeling is quickly creating a new dawn of construction site efficiency and our team are here to support all of your modeling needs.

If you’re not familiar with the concept, machine control employs a variety of positioning sensors — such as, GNSS receivers, total stations, rotating lasers and advanced GPS systems — to give machine operators feedback on things like blade and/or bucket position as well as target grades in relation to the machine control model visible in the cab.

 

With many of today’s leading heavy equipment manufacturers even pre-plumbing their equipment for machine control technology, this practice promises to be the new standard for efficient worksite operations. Hitachi, Cat, Case, and Volvo heavy plant is now being manufactured GPS ready on the production line, welcome to the future.

Our capabilities

The benefits of machine control are what make this breakthrough in earthwork machinery so popular. When carried out correctly — in conjunction with high-quality machine control models — it typically provides the following advantages:

01

Increases heavy-duty machine efficiency and productivity.

02

Decreases operating expenses such as fuel, repair and maintenance costs.

03

Reduces raw materials costs by using them more effectively.

04

Lowers surveying costs by eliminating ongoing grade checking.

For any machine control project to be successful, the 3D model it’s working from must be accurate and complete. That’s why more and more construction companies are turning to 3D machine control modeling services — like those we provide at MCM — to bid on, accept and complete more projects with confidence and proficiency.
