The Trimble GCS900 Grade Control System is flexible, fully upgradeable, and can be installed on machines from any manufacturer. Using the industry-standard Controller Area Network (CAN), you can easily add sensors and upgraded software to meet specific machine and application requirements.
The Trimble® GCS900 Grade Control System with the single GPS option can be installed on dozers for a wide range of earthmoving applications; on scrapers for mass excavation applications; on motor graders for a wide range of earthmoving applications; and creates a full 3D control system that puts the site plan - design surfaces, grades and alignments - inside the cab.
- Significant cost saving
- Less time to completion
- Less rework
- No waiting for stakes to be set
- More accurate, more consistent excavation
- Perform more complex excavation
GPS-BASED GRADE CONTROL SYSTEMS IDEAL FOR LARGE SITE PROJECTS AND LONG-TERM, MULTI-PHASE PROJECTS.
Using the single GPS antenna configuration, the position is measured (and blade slope is measured on graders and dozers). The on-board computer uses this position information, and compares it to the design elevation to compute cut or fill to grade. This information displays on the Control Box screen in plan, profile, cross-section view, or text. The cut/fill data is passed to the GCS900 lightbars and used to drive the valves for automatic blade control on graders, providing visual guidance to the operator for up/down to grade and right/left to a defined alignment.
The Trimble GCS900 with Single GPS is ideal for contractors who require a cost-effective, 3D grade control solution for bulk earthworks. The Single GPS option is easily upgradeable to the GCS900 with Dual GPS (or ATS systems with graders and dozers) as economic or jobsite requirements change. The Single GPS system is ideal for larger site projects and long-term, multi-phase projects. The GCS900 on a dozer and grader can be operated in either indicate or automatic mode.
Using the Trimble GCS900 with dual GPS on a scraper, dozer or motor grader allows contractors to significantly improve their productivity and profitability. It is ideal for roads and highways (rough grading), large earthmoving projects (dams, reclamation), landfills and waste deposits, commercial site prep (complex design), commercial site prep (pads, grading for large slabs), residential site prep, subdivisions (pads, local infrastructure), land reclamation projects, golf course construction and railway construction.
