Machine guidance for dredging

Zero in on the task at hand with the ability to visualize the tool angle and position when using backhoe excavator, clamshell crane, cutter suction and bucket dredges, harnessing greater accuracy and operational efficiency. For demolition, TMC provides greater precision when using rock-breaking tools and single-pass precision debris recovery, even for small objects.

Integrations & alternative uses

Fully customizable, infinitely versatile.

Sonar imagery for real-time as-building

Adding sonar to a 3D-visualization system provides real-time feedback of the new surface to confirm progress against design. Displayed in real-time within the cab, this instant insight empowers operators to hit specs the first time. Integrate Teledyne marine sonars for real-time as-building and work verification for regulatory requirements.
