Machine control makes the life of machine operators easier

作者：Per Norell

Taxus AB是使用新的Leica MCP80机器控制面板的瑞典公司之一，以及新的Leica MC1一对一的软件平台。出租车的挖掘机运营商都同意新数字解决方案的优势以及HXGN SmartNet的卫星定位服务以及通过客户服务包计划轻松访问支持和专家。

Taxus纯粹与租赁服务合作，他们不会直接从事建筑项目，而是专注于通过租赁解决方案为客户提供支持。该公司提供从测量，木匠和挖掘机到运输解决方案和起重机卡车的一切。Taxus位于瑞典哥森伯格北部的Stenungsund，雇用了约40名员工。如今，该公司的机器机队中有9个MCP80面板，其中两个与MC1一起使用，Taxus计划使用一对一的MC1解决方案来升级整个车队。

软件平台MC1为所有Leica GeoSystems机器控制解决方案提供了一个通用界面，并在施工站点上的机器，现场和办公室工作人员之间建立了无缝的连接。MC1的用户可以从自动工具识别中受益，该工具识别会自动检测挖掘机使用的工具。该功能最大程度地减少了使用错误的桶的风险，这可以防止挖掘并大大提高机器操作员的效率和生产率。

更好地概述该项目和不必要的驾驶

乔纳森·伦纳特森（Jonathan Lennartsson）与MCP80小组和MC1软件合作，将其新的沃尔沃（Volvo）欧洲150欧元挖掘机合作。

乔纳森·伦纳特森（Jonathan Lennartson）是出租车的挖掘机运营商之一。自四年前离开学校以来，他一直担任挖掘机操作员。

Jonathan had the new MCP80 panel with the MC1 software on his new Volvo EUR150 wheeled excavator that was delivered in the autumn of 2019.

“One of the main advantages with MC1 compared to the old software is that now I can see the entire model on the panel. I am no longer locked to the position that I have,”解释说Lennartson。“It means that I no longer have to drive around on the site to see the stakeout. I can just swipe with my fingers on the panel, which results in less driving. It makes me more efficient.”

对结果更有信心

Lennartson’s colleague, Tony Roos, has worked in the business for a considerably longer time. He has been an excavator operator since 2003 when Lennartson was just five years old. Roos has been part of the extensive technological development in machine control and has a lot of experience to compare digital solutions with traditional methods. Roos agrees with Lennartson that the new MC1 supports his workflow.

“I have a better overview with MC1. Before, I could only see the area around the bucket on my panel, but now I have a quick overview of the entire project. It gives me a sense of security that I do it right, I don’t rely on anybody else, and I don’t need a surveyor standing outside the machine,”says Roos.“ MC1还可以帮助我更快地执行工作。我更有效，我可以更好地与卡车司机计划工作，以便将材料放在正确的位置。它使我的工作更准确。

安全工具更换

MC1软件中的自动刀具识别，并确保托尼·罗斯（Tony Roos）始终使用正确的存储桶。

Roos发现可用的另一个功能是AutoSNAP功能以及自动识别，该函数使得直接在运行屏幕中更改工具。

使用AutoSNAP，我可以轻松地找到并捕捉到我需要直接在屏幕上工作的对象，”explains Roos.“当我更换白天多次做的水桶或工具时，它可以帮助我直接在面板上访问水桶。我不需要像以前那样进入菜单系统，而且我知道这总是我使用的合适的水桶。”

明亮阳光的更好的屏幕可见性

Leica Geosystems’ machine control solution is an inevitable component in the daily work of Taxus’ machine operators.

“始终使用带有MC1的MCP80，这是一个重要的工具，”伦纳特森说。

The new panel and software have even led to a better working environment for the operator as the solution is easier to see in bright sunlight.

“背景颜色曾经是黑色的，当太阳处于某些位置时，有时有时会受到限制。现在，背景颜色可以将其设置为光线，这有很大的不同，”解释说Lennartson。

工作日结束后，Lennartson拿出了MCP80小组，以免出于预防盗窃的原因在一夜之间留在挖掘机中。

“The panel is robust, and it has no antennas sticking out, so you don’t have to be afraid of breaking anything，”乔纳森解释说。

远程支持使故障排除更容易

Taxus已决定订阅Leica Geosystems的客户服务软件包（CCP），这使他们通过电话，在线远程支持，软件更新，年度服务检查和扩展保修中受益于客户支持。

每当Lennartson在设备方面需要帮助时，他都会致电Leica Geosystems的支持部门，并通过电话获得帮助。如有必要，技术人员可以远程访问MCP80面板并读取错误代码，甚至可以对面板进行远程控制。

“每当发生什么事情，我需要帮助时，我都需要快速。很高兴我可以致电支持部门或通过远程支持获得帮助。大多数问题都可以通过电话解决，但是偶尔会发生服务技术人员通过远程控制面板来帮助我，”解释说Lennartson。“这比等待技术人员在现场向我开车要去的解决方案要好得多。我不必站在机器上，这样我就可以做更多的事情，并且只知道我可以快速获得支持会给我带来安全感。”

HXGN SmartNetand Leica ConX

出租车从Leica Geosystems（包括Smartnet和Leibob综合app下载ca Conx）的许多连接产品和服务中受益。

Lennartsson对自动化技术感兴趣，并喜欢学习新事物。他使用Leica Geosystems的卫星定位服务HXGN SmartNet，并了解基于云的协作平台CONX。

“I use SmartNet all the time. The main advantage compared to a traditional total station is that I always know my position exactly, and I have all positioning with me when I am driving around. I don’t have to worry that something is blocking the signal, like for example a container,”解释说Lennartsson。“我尚未使用CONX，但我知道这是一个方便的解决方案。测量师可以直接从计算机发送文件，用户可以直接同步文件。重大优势是，我不必等待测量师出来的机器，而且我不需要使用USB棒。它也比传统的工作流程更安全，因为当我们在恶劣的环境中工作时，我也不需要机器周围的人。

售后市场和支持

Eje Andersson知道，快速支持在重型建筑行业至关重要。

Taxus has used machine control for a long time. The first equipment was purchased back in 2005 under the trademark Scanlaser. Eje Andersson is involved in Taxus’ daily work like a spider in the web and explains how important remote support and the relationship with Leica Geosystem is.

“It is important for us that we get full response to the aftermarket questions, and that the support is easily available and knowledgeable. Our machine operators can contact support directly themselves, and sometimes I do it when we have major questions. It is very convenient for us that the operators have the direct contact to the support so that they get the right help at the right time, and Leica Geosystems has top knowledge about their products,”安德森解释说。

“在y的合作一直很好ears. Leica Geosystems is a safe partner for us. It is an advantage that they are well established with the surveyors in our region of west Sweden. It gives a common ground of understanding when everybody knows the same technology,”says Andersson.
