Trimble Machine Guidance & Control System Pays Dividends
This system leverages advanced GPS technology to enhance job site efficiency, accuracy, and safety. It simplifies manual staking and cut-fill operations for workers. Dalton emphasises the importance of having the entire job site loaded on the GPS monitor, knowing the location of operators, and understanding their cut fills. According to him, this approach is the best for tackling dirt jobs. The grade control system has proven its value over time, paying for itself through increased efficiency and timely project completion.
