2D Machine Control Solution Provides Precision Excavation for Construction Companies

Unicontrol's 2D machine control solution, Unicontrol2D is tailored specifically for small to medium-sized construction companies and featuring its premium hardware. It is designed to make precision excavation easy to use as well as providing a future-proof first step on the journey to 3D machine control. 2D machine control is the ideal choice for companies facing tight budget constraints or those without a continuous project pipeline. Users can start reaping the benefits immediately as it can be easily retrofitted to existing equipment, removing all barriers to adoption.

With small- and medium-sized construction businesses finding it particularly hard as costs rise and margins are squeezed, 2D machine control technology can provide the helping hand they need to achieve their goals. Unicontrol2D means they can work faster, more precisely and more efficiently, increasing margins, minimizing rework and preventing over-digging.

Following its recent acquisition by Spectra Precision, a leader in laser positioning systems, Unicontrol is excited to enhance the functionality and reach of its products. The new 2D system integrates with Spectra Precision’s lasers and laser receivers, providing instant feedback and ensuring the highest efficiency and accuracy to an impressive ±2 mm. Real-time guidance, remote diagnostics and updates and a built-in cut/fill display ensures the correct depth and slope is achieved every time.

Designed with scalability in mind, Unicontrol’s 2D machine control solution fills this gap, offering a user-friendly, precise, and affordable entry point into machine-controlled construction. Unicontrol’s solution comes with straightforward upgrade paths to 3D machine control, simply by adding GNSS antennas, as business needs evolve.
