Soil Compaction Control

Earthworks for Soil Compactors

Accurately Control the Compaction Process

Trimble compaction control systems help you roll a more efficient pattern so you can reach target passes and density faster. Continuous compaction control for contractors who require compaction measurement capability, display and mapping of compaction measurements in real-time and on-machine documentation of compaction results.

Operator-Focused Design

Intuitive Software. Rugged Hardware

The Trimble Earthworks Software runs on the 10-inch (25.4 cm) Trimble TD520 display or the 7-inch (17.8 cm) Trimble TD510 display.

Colourful graphics, natural interactions and gestures, and self-discovery features make Trimble Earthworks intuitive and easy to learn. Each operator can personalize the interface to match their workflow and a variety of configurable views make it easier to see the right perspective for maximum productivity.

To ensure everyone is operating from the latest design, transfer data files to or from the office wirelessly and automatically using Trimble WorksManager, mobile-friendly software that easily manages data and technology assets across project sites.

Real-Time Compaction Intelligence

Monitor, Measure and Document Compaction with Confidence

The Trimble Earthworks Soil Compaction Control system gives operators and project managers complete visibility over the compaction process from start to finish. A full-colour graphical display provides clear, real-time feedback on pass counts, compaction progress and soil stiffness values, while intelligent compaction functionality allows operators to verify finished grade accuracy within the same workflow. Comprehensive compaction measurement values are continuously recorded across the entire work area, giving office teams the data they need to generate detailed documentation and ensure the project meets required specifications.

Full-Colour Graphical Display

The Trimble Earthworks grade control app runs on the new 10-inch (25.7 cm) Trimble TD520 touch-screen Android display.
The software was created in collaboration with construction equipment operators around the world, so the interface is optimized for ease-of-use and productivity.

Intelligent Compaction

  • Compact surface material and check finished grade accuracy in the same process

  • Achieve increased durability, stability and load-bearing capacity

Actionable Data

  • Continuously monitor pass counts and compaction measurement values (CMV) over the entire area

  • Collect and document comprehensive, real-time compaction data

  • Analyze data in the office to generate detailed reports and documentation to meet project specifications

Focus on Grade

Let the Machine Steer So Operators Can Focus on Grade

Trimble’s Horizontal Steering Control functionality takes the complexity out of pattern rolling by automatically guiding the machine along any horizontal alignment defined in the 3D model. With steering managed by the system, operators of all experience levels can concentrate on grade quality, machine productivity and on-site safety. The result is a more consistent compaction pattern, reduced overlap between passes, fewer total passes required to reach target density, and an overall improvement in both accuracy and site productivity.

  • Automatically control the machine to follow any horizontal alignment from the 3D model

  • Enables operators of all levels to roll a more efficient pattern, reach target passes and density faster

  • Increase situational awareness and achieve better accuracy

  • Improve productivity with decreased overlap and fewer passes
