Building roads in Belgium with 3D stringless paving

阿克拉格罗在比利时，是一家专门从事基础设施项目的公司，目前在比利时和法国雇用350名员工。阿克拉格罗（Aclagro）决定自动化其混凝土滑动铺路机，并选择Leica Geosystems Solutions，因为该公司多年来一直信任Leica Geosystems。

“We were a bit concerned if our workers could learn to work with the new system,”Aclagro的领班Yves de Backer解释说。“但是，几周后，我们的人民对新系统非常熟悉。现在，机器非常容易设置和操作，并且可能性几乎是无限的。”

该公司的Wirtgen SP15路缘和天沟机配备了Leica图标铺路解决方案与new innovative 1UP configuration对于位于布鲁日和比利时根特之间的Aalter郊区的公路坡道建设项目。这从土方工程到路缘和天沟铺路的工作流程无缝进行。这paving machine came into work just after the excavator had finished the earthworks, and, after data upload, it was ready for the job. This was particularly important because the street residents had no access to their houses during the construction works, and the3D paving solution from Leica Geosystems helped to reduce project time。

Leica Icon pave with 1up - 两个世界中最好的

这1UP配置将双GNSS系统与总站和棱镜系统结合在一起。这GNSS system controls the heading of the machine whereas the prism/total station system controls the slope and elevation of the machine’s mould with millimetre precision. This configuration, combining the高精准度of the total station and the prism configuration, is paramount for paving jobs with GNSS controlling the direction of the machine and allowed the customer to:

• 简化安装
• 减少设置时间
• Save costs because fewer total stations are needed, and the RTK corrections of the GNSS system are not required.

“这most important question for us was: ‘How flexible is the system?'”de Backer说。“Because of this, we decided to go for a GPS and TPS combination. When working in a tunnel, we use two total stations, but when we are just driving in the open field, we use GPS for the direction and total station for the height.”

Leica Geosystems于20年前发明了3D无弦铺路。避免物理弦线提高现场安全性因为人们不再绊倒弦线，因此现场需要更少的工人。

Designed for even the harshest of environments

解决方案包括新的崎MCP80panel certified with IP66 and IP67 ratings, meaning it is防止灰尘和水渗透。This is especially important for a solution for curb and gutter machines that does not have a cabin and where the panel is mounted on the machine, subject to the elements like the dusty environment that is typical for paving jobs. Thelarge colour touch-screenis designed for easy navigation andcan be used even in direct sunlight。

Leica MC1用于铺路解决方案

这machine control solution for Aclagro’s curb and gutter machine was delivered with the newLeica MC1software, the new generation on-machine control platform from Leica Geosystems. MC1 is the one-for-all software solution指导和自动化所有图标解决方案，导致简化的工作流程。MC1 software has now been released for the entire iCON road segment, including soil compactors, concrete pavers, asphalt pavers and milling machines. The new software has anuncluttered and user-friendly interface提出了最重要的功能。

For the curb and gutter machine, the quick access keys in the panel allow the operator to用手指轻松更改高度偏移and without leaving the run screen that has been set up with the exact preference for the operator.

与Leica ConX, the cloud-based data sharing tool, allows foreasy data transfer to and from the machine in real timeand gives the customer the opportunity ofremote support。

“可以远程检查机器，这对我们来说是一个很大的好处。当我们在工作现场遇到问题时，我们不必损失很多时间。”结论是伊夫。

Building on more than 20 years of experience with 3D stringless paving solutions, technological developments like the automatic leap frog, the 1UP configuration and the new MC1 software platform prove that Leica Geosystems continues leading 3D solutions for the paving industry.
