A compact, cost-effective 3D Machine Guidance

Smart construction Retrofit allows 3D machine guidance to an existing hydraulic excavator, no matter the OEM. With our multi-constellation GNSS system, you can achieve high position accuracy even in harsh environments, minimizing the need for in-field surveying. A cost-effective and easy-to-install kit that allows you to upgrade your conventional machine within one day.

  • Multi GNSS (GPS, Glonass, BeiDou, Gallileo)
  • Network RTK or base station correction
  • EU Coordinates Systems and localization
  • Display 3D design data
  • Heatmap of design cut/fill
  • Assign vertical or perpendicular offset
  • Create simple in-field design data (flat, slope, dual slope)
  • Extend grade of surface
  • Correction Data: RTCM3x and VRS (CMR+ Coming soon)
  • Cloud and USB/SD card file transfer
  • 2D Guidance Available
  • Compatible file types: Land XML, DXF, Topcon formats, Trimble formats

Pilot Web and Pilot Tablet Application

With the Pilot application, you can directly transfer 3D design data to the in-cabin Pilot tablet, Backup files, Download remotely 3DMG topo points and specific as-built data and finally monitor operator daily benchmarks and support operator remotely from your desk.

  • Create projects
  • Register machines and attachments
  • Acquire as-constructed machine data
  • Transfer 3D design data in multiple formats
  • Remote access to Pilot Tablet
  • User friendly interface

Instantly acquire machine
as-built data

While operating on a project using 3D digital design, as-built information is directly collected from the machine. This as-built data can be directly visualized in Smart Construction Dashboard, allowing automatic update of the terrain. Change in topography can also be visualized on the in-cabin screen using Pilot Tablet.

Connect Smart Construction Retrofit with Smart Construction Dashboard to enable as-built data visualization and project progress tracking

Track load counts
and volume moved​

Smart Construction Fleet combines payload data with logistic
information. In addition to the weight of soil loaded in the
bucket, you can also find out when and where the excavator
empties its bucket into a dump truck and the total amount of
soil loaded in the truck.

  • Easily track load counts and volume moved.
  • Gain insights into your productivity.
  • Promote proper loading weights for on- and off-road vehicles to prevent overloaded trucks.

Connect Smart Construction Retrofit with Smart Construction Fleet to enable material tracking and payload reporting.

Payload Meter

Make use of Payload Meter to measure the weight of soil loaded in the bucket or in the truck.

Please note that the payload meter is initially launched on Komatsu machines.

  • Truck and Payload history
  • Overloading alert
  • Display truck list
  • Easy and fast calibration
  • Use payload by itself or combined with 3DMG
Connectivity
