AccuGrade
AccuGrade
is
a
dealer
installed
machine
control
and
guidance
system
which
enables
operators
to
cut
and
fill
to
grade
with
increased
accuracy,
minimizing
the
need
for
traditional
stakes
and
grade
checkers.
AccuGrade
uses
advanced
Laser,
Global
Navigation

System
(GNSS)
and/or
Universal
Tracking
Station
(UTS)
technology,
machine-mounted
components
and
off-board

This
state-of-the-art
machine
control
system
provides
precise
elevation
information
on
an
in-cab
display
to
achieve
accurate
blade
positioning.
By
displaying
real-time
cut/fill
information
in
the
cab,
operators
can
improve
their
efficiency
and
get
to
grade
faster
with
fewer
passes
than
ever
before.
The AccuGrade
System
significantly
improves
the

of

by

much
as
50
percent
over
conventional
methods.
