... 17 September 2008 With Leica PowerDigger 3D, Leica Geosystems presents the world"˜s most popular, flexible and user friendly 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.Thanks to Leica PowerDigg ...» Weitere (HTML)
