Leica PowerDigger 3D for Excavator Guidance30/09/2008 |
| With Leica PowerDigger 3D, Leica Geosystems presents a 3D excavator system, saving up to 20% in operating costs. Using the Leica PowerBox GNSS (GPS + GLONASS) receiver, the exact 3D position of the bucket is determined and compared with a reference surface. Slope and height differences are then displayed to the operator, in real-time, on the screen. The system allows the operator to design and store on-the-fly complex surfaces with several slopes - directly in the machine. |

Leica PowerDigger 3D receives the machine position via GPS/GNSS, calculates the bucket‘s exact 3D position on site and compares the bucket position with the 3D design model, displaying differences (cut/fill/slope) on-screen for the operator.
Leica PowerDigger 3D facilitates working with vertical curves, cross-slope transitions and changes in width. The system always displays the machine's position in relation to the 3D design surface, in any site conditions. This tool can be used for underwater excavations and can also record the final excavated surface for as-dug reports. No more surveying is required.
The downtime in waiting for a site stakeout is virtually eliminated. This means the excavator can be utilised more efficiently. The machine operator gets information about the bucket position in real-time. With bucket tilt and rotation the machine operator can even fine-grade with the excavator. Leica PowerDigger 3D supports all common 3D design model formats, which can be sent wirelessly - via GSM or local wireless LAN - to the machine from any computer with internet access.
