GPS Machine Control
Systems for Agricultural Equipment
 |
By combining the
latest Trimble GPS technology with modern sophisticated electro
hydraulics, Mastenbroek has achieved a complete solution for the
drainage industry, from initial survey, through grade control to
as-applied mapping. With the latest GPS technology, the
contractor sees increased efficiency and speed of operations. |
 |
Survey and Design
 |
With high accuracy
GPS survey units, the surveying process becomes faster and more
efficient.
Drainage and level design can be done either on board the
display unit, or post survey with dedicated Farmworks surface
software. Dedicated land levelling software is also available
with Trimble Multiplane. |
 |
Machine control Grade
and Steering
|
Proven accurate
grade and depth control of agricultural machines gives the
contractor time and material savings over conventional methods.
Large clear onboard displays offer the operator concise and
informative output of the operation process of the machine,
while at the same time automatically controlling the machine's
hydraulic systems, Manual and automatic steering guidance is
also available to guide the operator to the right line everytime. |

Mapping and Job
Reporting
|

|
During
installation the GPS system records the as laid position and
materials used, as well as quantities. This information is then
simply transferred to the
Farmworks Office software for post
processing. Full electronic record keeping allows traceability
for the contractor. As laid drawings and invoice details can be
quickly generated with a variety.
