A Crano Excavating Inc. - which performs mass grading and site utilities - realized the benefits of GPS in construction years ago, according to Jim Riter, president. “To stay competitive in this business, a company must own GPS-guided equipment. It saves time and money.”
In 2020, A Crano moved beyond aftermarket systems and purchased its first Komatsu dozer with intelligent Machine Control (iMC). The company has seen even more benefits from the integrated machine control system compared to aftermarket Topcon. “Operators using the D61i use it in automatics mode up to 80% of the time,” Riter said, for example.
The D61i is also very fuel-efficient, Riter said. “The machine control is designed to carry the optimal load and not bog the engine down, unlike our current GPS guided machines.”
