Trimble Earthworks for soil compactors is essential for construction operations because it provides real-time feedback and guidance to operators, helping achieve optimal compaction levels precisely and efficiently. This state-of-the-art technology uses machine sensors and global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) to monitor compaction progress, ensuring site uniformity and preventing under- and over-compaction. By displaying real-time data on the compactor’s performance and the compaction levels achieved, Earthworks enables operators to make immediate adjustments to ensure better compaction outcomes.
As the exclusive Trimble distributor for California’s Northern Central Valley, SITECH West offers Trimble Earthworks and similar products to help customers increase productivity, accuracy and efficiency across their jobsites. We also provide a comprehensive range of support services, from equipment rentals and repairs to consulting and product training.
Trimble Earthworks Compaction Control Features
Roll in a more efficient pattern to reach target density and number of passes faster with a Trimble compaction control system. Trimble Earthworks takes the guesswork out of your site positioning or surveying operation, allowing you to get the most out of your equipment. This advanced solution enables crews to work smarter and faster, maximizing your operation’s profit with integrated, highly productive earthworks solutions.
Primary features include:
- Full-color display: An intuitive, easy-to-use display lets operators view compaction progress, stiffness and pass counts. This comprehensive setup gives operators better control and the ability to make informed decisions to achieve optimal results.
- Intelligent compaction: Advanced technology lets you compact surfaces and verify finished grade accuracy simultaneously. Precise control means increased stability, durability and load-bearing capacity.
- Landfill compaction support: The software is compatible with four-drum compactors with landfill compaction algorithms (LCA). This real-time kinematics (RTK) solution determines waste compaction levels through elevation change based on the machine’s size classification.
- Actionable data: Operators can continuously monitor compaction measurement values and pass counts across an entire area. Comprehensive analysis provides real-time data for office monitoring.
- Precise control: Enhanced steering control functionality allows operators to focus on grade, safety and productivity without concentrating on steering. Precise system control enables operators of all levels to achieve a more efficient pattern to reach target density.
Benefits of Trimble Earthworks for Soil Compactors
Implementing Trimble Earthworks into your compaction operation allows you to experience benefits like:
- Improved efficiency: Optimize and manage operations and create accurate bids even when delays and schedule changes impact your forecast. Create precise and integrated 3D constructible models for machines and field crews. Merge multiple data sources, analyze on-site soil conditions and optimize mass haul plans to move dirt more efficiently.
- Increased versatility: Eliminate stakes and perform various measuring and positioning tasks on-site using detailed, in-field 3D designs. Wirelessly access data to calculate progress and communicate work orders to avoid rework and delays.
- Enhanced accuracy: Get to grade faster with less rework. Excavate more accurately and maximize cycle times while monitoring the trucks and materials coming in and out of your jobsite. Achieve accuracy down to the centimeter while reducing over and undercutting, even when using less experienced operators.
- Streamlined communication: Wirelessly share map data between compactors to maximize the accuracy of your target pass count and ensure complete coverage over the entire project area.
