New Version 3D Machine Control System for Asphalt Pavers & Milling Machines

Leica Geosystems (Switserland) has launched a new version of its 3D machine control system for asphalt pavers and asphalt milling machines. LMGS-P v4 is built to operate in the harshest environments, and cope with the toughest paving and milling tasks.

Combining a user interface, CAN-bus architecture and Leica’s total stations, the LMGS-P 3D system is compatible to virtually all asphalt paver brands on the market, plus Wirtgen, Dynapac, Marini, Bitelli and RoadTec milling machines. LMGS-P fully automates the steer and cross-slope control of the screed, meaning contractors no longer have to set up stringline.

The LMGS-v4 does not require hydraulic installations, no lengthy installation and tuning period, but is based upon 'plug and pave’ technology.
A ruggedised machine computer, with touchscreen display and USB data transfer, provides on-machine operator information. Coupled with Leica’s ‘X-function’ System 1200 total stations, and interfaced to the machine via MOBA-matic LMGS-P v4 is easy for asphalt paving and milling crews to master.
