extends the capabilities of Trimble Siteworks Software from
surveying and layout to support on-machine guidance and
operator assistance, now on compact track loader buckets. The
addition of Siteworks Machine Guidance makes compact track
loaders even more versatile with an all-in-one solution for layout,
grading, and leveling. The solution gives users the ability to move
the system among multiple machines and jobsites, and to utilize
their existing technology on-machine quickly and easily, with
the addition of a simple-to-install machine kit and the Siteworks
software module.
" The Siteworks Machine Guidance Module has been popular
since the day we introduced it because it gives operators
a simple, high value, one-stop-shop for both survey and
grade control, " says Elwyn McLachlan, vice president, civil
solutions at Trimble. " We're excited to announce support
for compact track loaders, furthering the versatility of this
machine type. With Siteworks Machine Guidance, the operator
can easily use the bucket to level materials to design, which
would previously require switching to either a grading or box
blade attachment. " For more, visit www.trimble.com.
