Now you can use the same hardware and software to perform a variety of tasks on the job site.
New! The Trimble® Siteworks Positioning System has evolved to include a machine guidance module for excavators.
In addition to being used for traditional surveying applications, your Trimble GNSS Smart Antenna and field controller can be transferred to an excavator to become part of a machine guidance system. A versatile and flexible solution for upgrading your small machines to machine guidance with minimal initial investment.
How does it work?
GNSS Smart Antenna and Field Controller
All you need is a Trimble GNSS Smart Antenna with tilt compensation, a machine kit and any data collector that supports Siteworks.
Siteworks Guidance Kit
Sign up for the Machine Guidance option when you purchase a Trimble Siteworks Positioning System - it will be activated on the Siteworks software OR add on a machine kit and software module license to your existing system. We will quickly install the guidance kit on your machine.
From Surveying to Guiding
Transfer the GNSS antenna and field controller from the surveyor rod to the machine in a few minutes and use them in the configuration you want: surveying or machine guidance. The same background map created on Trimble Siteworks is used for both applications.
Benefits:
- Fast and flexible: Go from machine guidance to surveying and back in minutes
- Reliability of data collection and accuracy of Trimble machine guidance systems in one system
- Ruggedness of a Trimble solutions, designed to withstand extreme job site conditions
- Ergonomics and ease of use of the Trimble Siteworks software interface
- Ability to create projects in the field
- Import and export design data in Land XML format.
