Construction machine control

3D grade control for excavators and custom machines display design surfaces in the cab with centimeter accuracy, resulting in fewer stakes and fewer re-passes.

Position machines in real-time, and sync to design accurately.

Tersus GNSS machine-control systems guide excavators and custom machines to design grade without survey stakes. Retrofit to existing plant and connect to site layout and QA workflows.

2D and 3D bucket guidance for trenching and finishing.
Automatic blade control for bulk and fine grading.
Stakeout, as-built capture and QA against design.
Cut/fill in real time across the earthworks.
Pass counting and layer tracking for QA.
Elevation, slope and thickness control on resurfacing.
