通过节省时间并使用机器控制来节省时间和返工来最大程度地减少环境足迹
Case study
Author: Karina Lumholt
Tucked between Iceland, Scotland and Norway in the North Atlantic Ocean, a group of 18 volcanic islands is the home of around 50,000 people and many sheep. Tórshavn, the world’s smallest, and some would say cosiest, capital in the world, hosts almost half of the country’s predominantly young population.
The Faroe Islands have a highly-developed infrastructure connecting the archipelago with bridges, roads, tunnels and subsea tunnels. The population growth, rise in tourism and large public transportation investments are causing the construction industry to boom.
Plan Sp/f is a 40-year-old construction company founded by Johannes Hellisdal. Today, father and son, Johannes and Dan Hellisdal, are working side by side in the company that employs approximately seven people, but this number can vary according to the season and the number of projects. Plan Sp/f has worked on road projects, roundabouts, site preparation, land development and parking lots in every part of the Faroe Islands and mainly in Tórshavn. The company is specialised in earthmoving activities and owns seven excavators whereof one is equipped withLeica IXE3机器控制解决方案以及ASALeica图标GPS 70 T用于利益。
“Our ambition is to work efficiently while minimising our environmental footprint,” explains Johannes Hellisdal. “Machine control is a very targeted part of that strategy because we save a lot of costs, time and fuel by getting the job done right the first time.透明

在法罗群岛上使用机器控制是相当新的，父亲和儿子都承认许多优势。计划SP/F目前正在Tórshavn的一个建设项目中，为建造12栋建筑物准备了一个将容纳38个房屋的建筑。
The underground, consisting of bedrock, must be either blasted or broken by a hydraulic hammer mounted on an excavator. Using machine control makes a difference on a project like this.
Dan Hellisdal explains the workflow, “现在，我们以一种更加精确，更快的方式工作。我正在使用Komatsu PC360 LC挖掘基地开始的位置。我父亲正坐在另一个挖掘机上，锤子，我们与对讲机交流。我可以直接在我的机器控制面板上看到他必须卸下多少岩石才能达到正确的成绩。在将机器控制引入机器公园之前，我们花了很多时间删除了很多基岩，现在我们只删除了必要的内容，并节省了时间，燃料和成本。透明
正如约翰·赫利斯达尔（Johannes Hellisdal）解释说的那样，还没有太多的重型建筑机器在法罗群岛（Faroe Islands）上配备了机器控制，因此很容易通过机器控制出租机器。
法罗群岛的特殊气候条件
The Faroese climate poses special challenges. The climate is mild yet unpredictable and everchanging with a great deal of rainfall and fog. With relatively mild winters, Plan Sp/f is normally able to work all year round.
“我们到处都有水，建筑物的地面必须用良好的排水装置，以使房屋保持干燥。我们通常必须抽水才能继续工作，但我们已经习惯了，我们甚至不认为这是一个问题，透明explains Dan Hellisdal.
Leica GeoSystem的机器控制安装程序KimHøjland安装并校准了机器上的IXE3解决方案，并解释了在恶劣天气下工作的机器上安装机器控制时的特殊准备工作。
“I need to install the iCG82 GNSS receiver inside the cabin in order to protect it from the weather, and the entire machine will receive a foam coating so that it is prepared for the Faroese conditions,KimHøjland在完成校准并将Faroese坐标系加载到Leica MC1机器控制软件中时说。
The machine is then ready to be shipped and find its new owners in the Faroese capital of Tórshavn.

Plan Sp/f’s ambition to work in a green and efficient way drove Dan and Johannes to order a new Komatsu 365 H Hybrid excavator, that reduces fuel consumption and consequently lower CO2 emissions. To get the job done efficiently without rework, thus fully minimise environmental footprint, the Hybrid excavator was pre-installed with Leica Geosystem’s iXE3 machine control solution directly from the dealer Scantruck in Denmark.
