GPS & Machine Control Star brought machine control to Iowa with the first indicate only machines installed on road graders and dozers in the early 80’s to do rough grading for building pads. Since that time Star as has grown in its offerings along with the technology today. Whether the equipment is driven by a laser or GPS, Star has the latest technology.
3D Machine Control – Utilizes Global Positioning Satellites to control vertical and horizontal elevations.
Dozers Graders – GPS Millimeter
The most accurate in the industry allowing you to grade to an accuracy of +/- 1 millimeter in 2nd gear. No other GPS system can do this.
Scrapper 3DI
an indicate only system for scraper control utilizing GPS
Excavator 3DXI
Positioning and vertical control for excavators utilizing GPS
Pocket 3D
Asoftware program, allowing you to load and field adjust TIN files HiPer Lite Rovers
Allows you to quickly survey a job and create mobile TIN file to check and make sure that the engineers have given you valid information. In addition it can be used to accurately assess production levels and pile quantities.
LPS – Local Positioning System
Allows total accuracy inside or outside without the clear vision of the sky. Where GPS has to have a clear vision of the sky, LPS only needs to see the total station to control the machine to +/- ¼” accuracy.
2D Machine Control – Utilizes lasers to control vertical elevations
