Machine Control Services

With over 15 years of engineering survey expertise, we deliver precise machine control setup and model creation to keep your construction projects on time and under budget.

The Challenges of Earthworks Without Machine Control

Construction teams across Victoria face significant hurdles when managing earthworks without proper machine control systems.

• Costly Rework

  Inaccurate earthworks lead to expensive corrections, material waste, and project delays that impact your bottom line.

• Productivity Bottlenecks

  Without machine control, operators frequently wait for surveyors to set stakes and check grades, creating costly downtime for expensive equipment.

• Skilled Operator Shortage

  Finding and retaining operators who can consistently achieve precise grades manually is increasingly difficult in today's labor market.

• Budget Uncertainty

  Traditional methods make it difficult to accurately predict material quantities, leading to unexpected costs and budget overruns.

At Outright Surveying, we leverage our 15 years of expertise to deliver machine control solutions that address these challenges head-on.

• Eliminate Rework

  Our precise machine control models guide operators to get earthworks right the first time, reducing material waste and keeping your project timeline intact.

• Maximize Equipment Value

  Transform each machine into a high-precision tool that works continuously without waiting for survey stakes, dramatically increasing your return on equipment investment.

• Empower Any Operator

  Our systems allow operators of all experience levels to achieve expert-level precision, expanding your labor pool while maintaining quality standards.

• Control Material Costs

  Achieve exact cut/fill volumes with real-time feedback, allowing for precise material ordering and preventing costly overages or shortages.

Our Machine Control Services

We provide machine control solutions tailored to your specific project requirements:

• Model Creation & Optimization

  We transform your design data into optimized 3D models specifically built for machine control systems, ensuring they work flawlessly with your equipment while maintaining design intent.

• Ongoing Quality Control

  Our surveyors perform regular field checks to verify the accuracy of your machine control systems throughout the project, ensuring consistent quality and catching any issues before they impact your schedule.

• Systems Training & Troubleshooting

  We provide basic training and troubleshooting support for the main machine control systems in use. While we do not train operators extensively, we ensure they have a clear understanding of the essential functions and can address common issues.

Technical Capabilities & Equipment

Our machine control expertise is backed by industry-leading technology and software. We utilize specialized software, including 12D, Trimble Business Center, Topcon 3D Office, Leica Icon, and Listech Neo, to develop precise machine control models that seamlessly integrate with your equipment systems.

Our team is experienced with all major machine control platforms, including Trimble, Leica, and Topcon systems, allowing us to support your existing equipment without requiring new investments.

We establish reliable control networks using our fleet of total stations, ensuring centimeter-level accuracy across your entire project site. Our surveyors use Leica MS60 and Trimble SX10 multi-stations to perform independent checks on machine control work, verifying that the actual earthworks match the design specifications.
