Excavators equipped with 2D or 3D excavator guidance solutions from Leica Geosystems and tilt rotators supported by SVAB Quantum can now use new iXE CoPilot functionality, enabling the tilt function on a tilt rotator to be handled automatically. The tilt will automatically be adjusted so it is held parallel to the surface as the operator pulls in the excavator arm. The automatic tilt function for SVAB Quantum is now available on all Quantum platforms, and former versions of Machine Control System (MACS)

Excavators equipped with 2D or 3D excavator guidance solutions from 437 Leica Geosystems and tilt rotators supported by SVAB Quantum can now use new iXE CoPilot functionality, enabling the tilt function on a tilt rotator to be handled automatically. The tilt will automatically be adjusted so it is held parallel to the surface as the operator pulls in the excavator arm.
The automatic tilt function for SVAB Quantum is now available on all Quantum platforms, and former versions of Machine Control System (MACS) platforms can be updated to support the functionality. Tiltrotator brands supported by Quantum and Leica iCON iXE22D solution and Leica iCON iXE3 3D solution will have the possibility to connect to the function.
“This new functionality is totally in line with our strategy of creating more efficient and innovative solutions for how to control an excavator,” says Fredrik Eriksson, CEO of SVAB.
