Product Overview
The Topcon MC-Max Dozer is a mastless 3D machine control system that enhances dozer work efficiency and accuracy for various grading applications. It uses dual roof-mounted GNSS receivers and Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensors to provide high-speed, precise blade control without the need for traditional blade-mounted masts.
The bright and robust GX-Series delivers a brand-new experience for modern machine control.
The 3D-MC software on the GX-Series provides real-time position and project design information, with integrated grade indicator LEDs.
The Topcon GR-i3F is a high-precision integrated GNSS receiver designed for machine control, surveying, and construction applications. It supports multiple satellite constellations, including GPS, GLONASS, QZSS, and SBAS, to provide accurate, reliable positioning data.
The MC-X3 control unit includes a radio to communicate with local base stations and a cell modem to communicate with 4G networks.
The MC-Max excavator system utilizes
TS-i4 sensors. TS-i4 sensors are IMUs that are not affected when starting, stopping, or turning.
Optimize your bulldozer for the project at hand. There is nothing worse than being on the job site without the tools you need. MC-Max Dozer powered by the MC-X Platform keeps you in the cab and in control, with the right tools always at your fingertips. No two job sites are the same—some sites give you open access to the sky and the satellites needed for GNSS or GPS guidance, while other sites close to buildings, in tunnels, or under tree canopies may require robotic total stations for precise positioning and machine control. MC-Max makes switching between guidance modes quick and easy to suit your situation. Choose your level of control and precision: a 2D solution allows you to work with Sonic, Laser, or slope inputs and gives you the freedom to push dirt by feel, while 3D Automatic mode lets the machine follow the grade design automatically so you can maintain accuracy and reduce end-of-day fatigue.
