SUNNYVALE, Calif., Sept. 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Trimble
(NASDAQ:TRMB) and ATI Corporation announced today a 3D grade
control solution for ATI's Level Best PD Series Grading Boxes on
skid-steer loaders. With the Trimble® GCS900 Grade
Control System, small contractors can work more quickly and
efficiently on complex projects that require 3D machine control and
digital designs. 3D machine control on skid-steer loaders can also
benefit large contractors by allowing them to complete the finish
phase of projects with added precision and at a lower cost.
"The collaboration between Trimble and ATI Corporation
reinforces our commitment to providing small contractors with
construction technology to make them more productive," said
Ryan Kunisch, marketing director for
Trimble Civil Engineering and Construction. "With Trimble GCS900
now available on Level Best Grading Boxes, contractors have a 3D
machine control solution for their skid-steer loader, regardless of
the manufacturer."
"ATI Corporation is excited about the combined effort with
Trimble. The combination of the Trimble GCS900 3D Grade Control
System and the Level Best Grading Boxes allows our customer base to
easily enter the 3D world. Contractors have the ability to combine
the productivity of 3D machine control with a Level Best Grading
Box on any brand of compact track or skid-steer loader. This
enables Level Best to stay on the cutting edge of jobsite
technology," said Jack Herr,
vice-president of ATI Corporation.
The Trimble GCS900 system is perfect for footpaths, parking
lots, sidewalks and other surfaces that require a 3D constructable
model, which can be built in Trimble's Business Center – HCE office
software. In addition, the system is part of the portfolio of
Trimble Connected Site® solutions, so contractors can
wirelessly sync files to the machine, track assets and site
productivity, and receive remote support or training.
