3D Machine Control

Gartell and Son have invested in high-performance plant and equipment to deliver outstanding cost efficiency, along with enhanced safety standards. Using the latest automated construction technology has major safety advantages, reducing exposure of site personnel, and therefore minimising risk.

With state-of-the-art Machine control on our dozers and excavators, we can achieve construction and excavation processes which are robust and economical. We can perform tasks with complete efficiency and cost-effectively, such as setting out, constant material tracking and high-precision trimming. At the same time, this market-leading technology enables us to maintain the highest levels of quality and accuracy.

We use the latest Trimble and Topcon equipment on a range of, Liebherr dozers and excavators, delivering safety and cost benefits for all types and sizes of earthworks projects. All of our Excavators with a Steelwrist attachment, benefit from automatic control, where the design controls the angle of the bucket, ensuring correct grades instantly.

Machine Control technology is constantly being developed. We are committed to regularly upgrading our fleet of Machine Control equipment, as new models become available from our preferred suppliers
