The sophisticated Trimble Siteworks Machine Guidance Module for tilt-bucket attachments is now available. By integrating the full range of motion of the tilt bucket’s cutting edge into the Siteworks machine guidance and layout software, operators can achieve precise grading and levelling, efficient ditch cleaning and shaping, accurate backfilling and complex slope work. This allows for construction of contoured landscapes and effective operation in confined spaces, saving time and preventing costly mistakes.
This system also extends the capabilities of the Trimble Siteworks Software, allowing field operators to move from surveying and layout to on-machine guidance and operator assistance for tilt buckets and tilt couplers.
The Siteworks Machine Guidance system is designed for transitions between tasks. Operators can use the same system for surveying and machine control, moving it effortlessly between machines and jobsites. This is achieved with a simple-to-install machine kit and the Siteworks Machine Guidance software module, leveraging existing technology.
The package includes the Trimble R780 GNSS Smart Antenna with tilt compensation, powered by the Trimble ProPoint®positioning engine, and a compatible bring-your-own-device or Trimble field tablet running Siteworks software.
In addition to increasing efficiency in the field, contractors can also share designs, access remote support and keep projects moving using Trimble WorksManager Software. When used in conjunction with a real-time Trimble correction service, such as Trimble CenterPoint RTX, contractors gain increased mobility. This eliminates the need for local base stations or VRS networks and helps achieve high-accuracy positioning worldwide via satellite or cellular/IP, even in remote areas.
