AGL

AGL’s 304 Laser Control System is small in size. The 2D system includes a versatile mounting bracket and a rugged high-speed PowerMast to easily change your receiver height for fast grade change. (www.agl-lasers.com)

CST/berger

The power and precision of CST/berger’s ALGR is designed for optimum leveling versatility. It offers dual dial-in grade and horizontal and vertical self-leveling. All features are accessible via the onboard LCD screen. (www.cstberger.com)

HitchDoc

The Dual Dozer by HitchDoc attaches to most major brand skid steer models, and a patented mount lets the blade operate independently. The laser controlled grading box automatically adjusts both edges by two hydraulic cylinders, offering subgrade accuracy within one-eighth of an inch. (www.hitchdoc.com)

Leica SP technology

The Leica SP technology for bulldozers revolutionizes the way contractors move dirt and fine-grade. SP Technology significantly enhances grading performance, resulting in higher productivity even on challenging jobsites. (www.leica-geosystems.us/MachineControl)

MOBA

The MOBA 3D leveling system allows graders and dozers to achieve maximum evenness in the construction of roads and flat sites. Using MOBA 3D, construction companies can increase their performance and optimize cost-effectiveness. (www.moba.de)

Ocala

Ocala’s ExcaVision GPS is a grade monitor for excavators. Contractors can start with the basic system and add GPS for larger jobs. Operators can monitor their work from the cab and dig all day without the need for grade checkers. (www.ocalainstruments.com)

Sokkia

Sokkia’s GRX1 GNSS system adds versatility and flexibility to precision applications. The GRX1 features triple wireless technology, fully scalable architecture and voice messaging in a compact, watertight body. (www.sokkia.com)

Topcon

Topcon’s 3D Millimeter GPS+ combines the advantages of laser with GPS into one versatile and easy-to-use system. This patented technology improves grading accuracy up to 300 percent over existing 3D-GPS machine systems. (www.topconpositioning.com)

Trimble

The Trimble GCS900 Grade Control System leverages the MS992 GNSS Smart Antenna—the most powerful RTK engine available. Stronger signal acquisition from more satellites means Trimble users can run faster, longer and without interruptions. (www.trimble.com)
