Machine Control for Drilling, Piling and Dynamic Compaction Machines

Optimize production and revenue for drilling, piling and dynamic compaction operations. All day, all night and under almost any conditions.

Trimble Groundworks Machine Control System

Advanced Trimble positioning technology helps increase the safety, accuracy and efficiency of drilling and piling operations. Integrated solutions bring the office and the field together for less rework, more productivity, and best of all — more profitability.

Groundworks solutions

Features and Benefits

Trimble Groundworks is a 3D machine control system that improves efficiency and reduces downtime with stakeless navigation, monitoring productivity and quality, and managing design data from office to field. Groundworks delivers drill holes in a uniform blasting pattern to improve rock fragmentation.

3D or 2D Guidance

Accurate drill depth, direction and drill hole calculation from any direction. Reduced overdrilling prevents accelerated machine drill bits and hammer wear.

Improve Site Safety

Avoidance zones alert the operator of areas to avoid, reduces blind spots and removes the need for people standing near the machine.

Auto-Stop

Auto-Stop feature eliminates over/under drilling and reduces machine wear and tear. Drill exactly to the required depth.

Productivity Monitoring
  • Real-time 3D information of work completed, providing complete transparency across the entire project
  • Real-time cut, fill, volume and compaction data
  • Adjust daily work targets to stay on schedule
  • Visibility into which machine is working
  • 2D cut/fill maps for material movement
Integrated Site Design
  • Projects from Trimble Business Center and WorksManager are automatically transferred into WorksOS operations management system for accurate comparison between planned and actual work.
  • To take full advantage of office-to-field interoperability, see more about the Trimble Jobsite Connectivity Bundle here.
