Learn How to Utilize 3D Machine Control

General Navigation and Basic Features

In this video you will learn how to navigate the Unicontrol3D run screen and be introduced to the different features. The different features will enable you to utilize the 3D Machine Control for different tasks and how to select or create a design file.

Tip: In Unicontrol3D all the functions on the right sidebar have two functions: Instant Click or Press and hold

Lines & Points

In this video you will learn how to use edge of the bucket to create points and lines directly form the cab.

Tip: Unicontrol 3D can be used to create designs or to document as-built and mark utilities.

Reference Lines

In order to use 3D Machine control to guide a precise excavation and efficient operation, you can create Reference Lines.

Tip: In Unicontrol3D all the functions on the right sidebar has two functions: Instant Click or Press and hold.

Create flat surface

In this video you will learn how to create a flat surface. This allows you to independently create a design with Unicontrol3D on your own, directly from the cab.

Tip: In Unicontrol3D all the functions on the right sidebar has two functions: Instant Click or Press and hold.

Create Surface from points

In this video you will learn how to create a surface from points - either by selecting existing points or creating points for the design using the bucket.

Tip: Creating a slope you can define the desired permille by adjusting manually or setting the specific permille in numbers.

Create slope

In this video, you will learn how to create a slope in a desired permille using the bucket as the reference.

Tip: Creating a slope you can define the desired permille by adjusting manually or setting the specific permille in numbers.

Create Slope from 2 points

In this video, you will learn how to create a slope declining or inclining in a specific permille according to two points. This feature is useful to create a slope as a reference based on two known points in the landscape or design.

Tip: When creating a slope or fall you can create new reference points with the bucket or select known points in the design.

Fall to Point/Line

In this video, you will learn how to create a fall to a point or line. Creating a specific slope permille towards a point or line is useful when doing paving.

Tip: When creating a slope or fall you can create new reference points with the bucket or select known points in the design.

Foundation Outline

In this video, you’ll see how easy it is to create a foundation—without leaving the cab. Simply place four points, generate the bottom elevation, and let Unicontrol3D handle the rest.

Tip: In the surface menu, you can use both logged points and temporary help points—or even combine them.

Surface from Cross Section

In this video, we’ll show you how to create a surface using a cross-section that you can easily define yourself. You can specify different sections of the surface, making this function especially useful for road construction preparation and ensuring surface drainage.

Tip: When creating the cross-section you can choose between existing logged points or create temporary help points. Only the existing logged points are saved as as-built data.

ADJUST OFFSET

In this video, you will learn how to create a side- and height offset for your surface. This is useful if you want to increase the height without changing the shape of your surface. It also helps you precisely calculate how much material is needed to create a stabilizing layer of your surface.

Tip: When you add a side offset, it applies to both sides of the line and follows the focus point of the bucket. The offset is always a positive value on both sides.

LOAD Background & DEsign FILES

In this video, you will learn how to upload a background file and a design file to your runscreen. This allows you to cross-check your work against the surface design file.

Tip: You can customize one of the value bars at the top of the run screen to display the height from either side of your bucket to the lines in your background file.
