Guidemate X-Track 3D Excavator Control System
Request a Quote
The Guidemate X-Track 3D Excavator Control System puts the project design and live bucket position directly in the cab. Australian-designed and powered by Track3D, it helps operators excavate to the required surface with clear, real-time guidance.
Septentrio GNSS positioning combines with machine-mounted sensors to calculate the bucket’s selected working edge relative to the digital design. Operators can see how much material needs to be cut or filled while working across trenches, pads, batters and complex 3D surfaces.
Work directly from the design with less reliance on repeated grade checks, height transfers and traditional setout.
Key Features
Work Directly from the Design
Load digital project surfaces and linework into Track3D. View the machine, bucket and required surface together as excavation progresses.
Live Cut and Fill Guidance
See how far the bucket’s selected working edge is above or below design in real time. Follow the on-screen guidance to approach the required surface.
Continuous Bucket Tracking
Machine-mounted sensors track boom, stick, bucket and body movement to calculate the working edge’s position as you operate.
Work Across the Project
GNSS positioning updates as the excavator moves, allowing operators to continue working against the design without establishing a new height reference each time.
Flexible RTK Corrections
Receive RTK corrections from a local GNSS base station or a compatible network RTK service to suit the project and available communications.
System Components & Technology
Control Terminal
A high-brightness touchscreen running Track3D displays the machine, bucket, project design and live cut and fill guidance.
Septentrio GNSS Positioning
Provides real-time position and heading information as the excavator moves across the project.
Guidemate Positioning Hub
The rugged external hub combines Septentrio GNSS technology with UHF and network RTK communications.
Machine Sensors
Sensors measure boom, stick, bucket and body angles so Track3D can calculate the position of the selected bucket working edge.
Track3D Software
Load compatible 3D design surfaces, DXF linework and project data into a clear in-cab interface. Operators follow visual guidance while controlling the excavator.
Built for Productivity
X-Track 3D is suited to trenching, drainage, footings, foundations, building pads, batters, roadworks and bulk or final excavation. Live bucket and design information helps operators work confidently to grade while reducing repeated checking, overcutting and rework.
