At Aptella, we\u2019re massive fans of machine control technology<\/a> because we\u2019ve seen the changes in operator confidence and productivity first hand. We\u2019ve witnessed construction projects finished before their scheduled end date thanks to machine control and know its importance on construction projects will only grow in the coming decade. Topcon, our number one construction positioning systems partner has always been an industry leader for machine control systems.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

From the start, Topcon has been producing high-quality machine guidance and control systems<\/a>. If you\u2019ve worked on an excavator in the past 30 years, there\u2019s a good chance that you\u2019ve used Topcon technology. This is because almost all operators and fleet managers have embraced excavator guidance<\/a> and control in some form and with the multitude of options available on the market, there\u2019s no guessing why.<\/span><\/p>\n

With a new decade often comes a new generation of technology. ‘Automation’ may be the term of the month, but automation in construction machinery is here to stay. Automation may look different to everyone, but to Topcon, it means making an operator\u2019s life easier. It\u2019s not about removing responsibilities for the operator but about making sure, when they get to the end of the day, they\u2019re not extremely fatigued. Fatigue not only affects an operator\u2019s excavation work but also their mental state and personal life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Topcon\u2019s latest release, the X-53x automatic excavator control is specifically built to make an operators life easier. It\u2019s the newest addition to a growing range of automated machine control<\/a>, with more to come in the future. Below we go through the benefits of automated machine control.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
