Optimise Your Dozer’s Performance with Trimble Earthworks

Trimble Earthworks for Dozers offers dozer operators unmatched precision, flexibility, and control.

Whether you're looking for cab-mounted portability or blade-mounted configurations, the system enhances efficiency, reduces operator fatigue, and ensures projects are completed faster and with greater accuracy. With features like Horizontal Steering Control, Blade-Mount Dual GNSS, and Universal Total Station (UTS), you can tailor your setup to your needs, whether for fine grading or complex earthworks.

 

Trimble Earthworks For Dozers

Horizontal Steering Control

Stay on Track and Focus on Grade

Horizontal Steering Control for dozers automatically controls your dozers to follow any horizontal alignment such as a back of a curb, break line, roadway centreline or bottom of slope, without operator assistance. Operators can also manually set up offsets from selected alignments that the machine can follow. Horizontal Steering Control allows the operator to focus on the grade, machine productivity and safety rather than worrying about steering, which reduces operator fatigue and errors. It enables the machine to follow the horizontal guidance from the 3D model, providing operators increased awareness of their surroundings, better accuracy and improved productivity with decreased overlap and fewer passes.

Blade-Mount Dual GNSS Support

Enhanced Control for Older Dozer Models

With Blade-Mount Dual GNSS, even older machines in your fleet can benefit from advanced grade control. This system offers operators improved accuracy on steep slopes and complex surfaces by precisely determining the position and slope of the blade, making every pass more productive.

Cab-Mounted Portability and Versatility

Receiver Portability Across Machines for Versatile Use

The cab-mounted dual GNSS receivers eliminate the need for blade-mounted masts and cables, simplifying operations and boosting productivity. Perfect for steep slope work and complex designs, these portable receivers can be moved between machines, maximising your investment while saving valuable time on site.

Universal Total Station (UTS) System

Achieve Superior Accuracy in Challenging Conditions

For tasks requiring precision in GNSS-obstructed environments, the UTS system offers an ideal solution. This setup enables your dozer to operate in environments where satellite signals are weak, ensuring you maintain accuracy even in the most challenging conditions.

3D Grade Control for Dozers

Smarter, More Accurate Grading with 3D Technology

Trimble’s 3D grade control system for dozers provides enhanced accuracy, making it ideal for complex projects and large-scale operations. The system allows operators to visualise design information directly in the cab, offering real-time guidance and automated blade control for precise results.

Key Features of 3D Grade Control:
  • Real-time cut/fill data: Display live design information in the cab, allowing operators to make quick adjustments.
  • Automatic blade control: Ensures precise blade movements based on design elevations, reducing manual input and errors.
  • Monitor avoidance zones: Keeps operators informed about safety-critical areas, reducing the risk of accidents or rework.
  • As-built data collection: Records data as the machine cuts to grade, ensuring accurate tracking of progress.
  • Millimetre accuracy: Achieve precise results with fewer passes, saving time and fuel.
  • Bulk earthworks and finished grading: Suitable for large-scale earthmoving and achieving final grade accuracy.

2D Grade Control for Dozers

Cost-Effective and Simple Grade Control with 2D Systems

Trimble’s 2D grade control system offers a more straightforward solution for contractors focused on smaller projects or those new to construction technology. The system provides guidance for blade lift and slope control, helping operators reach grade quickly and accurately.

Key Features of 2D Grade Control:
  • Laser-guided accuracy: A single laser and receiver measure the blade's lift and tilt, providing simple yet effective guidance.
  • Slope measurement options: Add a second laser or slope sensor for more accurate slope grading.
  • Quick elevation guidance: Achieve grade faster with clear elevation and slope instructions.
  • Cost-effective solution: An affordable entry point for contractors looking to improve grading precision.
  • Upgradable to 3D: The 2D system can easily be upgraded to a 3D solution as your business grows.
