Technology to move material
Caterpillar® is helping customers revolutionise the way they move material with new technology solutions for earthmoving machines — solutions that provide greater accuracy, higher productivity, lower operating costs and more profitability
Cat AccuGrade™ is a line of products that automatically controls the blade in the grading process. In the case of excavators, it provides the operator visual guidance to the jobsite plan.
The AccuGrade™ system is designed and integrated into the machine and hydraulic systems to increase reliability and performance.
The AccuGrade™ Laser Grade Control System is designed for a wide range of construction earthwork applications requiring tight tolerances and high production rates. Laser grade control is so accurate in fact, that in many cases these systems are required in project specifications or by general contactors in the construction industry. Field-proven and versatile, the dual laser system is ideal for fine grading of sites with flat, single or dual slope surfaces, such as industrial, commercial and residential building sites.
The AccuGrade™ GPS Grade Control System is a high technology machine control and guidance system that allows dozer operators to grade with increased accuracy, without the need for survey stakes. Digital design data, in-cab operator guidance features and automatic blade controls help the operator achieve grade faster, meaning higher productivity, lower operating costs, and greater profitability.
