HxGN Live 2015 Las Vegas! 3D machine control comes alive

Edvin Dale: 3D machine control will help get it right first time round
Complete implementation of 3D machine control systems ensured that K A Aurstad became one of Norway’s fastest growing and in-demand contractors because of effective production improvement in both quality and accuracy.

Combine this with web-based project hubs and machines can then start work on the correct project only minutes after the latest design leaves the drawing board.

The use of machine control is important for K A Aurstad, based in Sunnmøre and whose 140 or more employees work in heavy construction, earth moving, drilling and blasting, small tunnels, crushing and more.

Edvin Dale, director of geomatics and machine control, will explain the route to success at this year’s HxGN Live 2015 event in Las Vegas next month. The company motto is now “Right First Time”, thereby eliminating the need for costly rework.

7121 Hexagon’s HxGN Live international users’ conference, from June 1-4, will be an event not to miss if 3D machine control is an essential part of your business operation or just on your horizon. Attendees will experience break-out sessions, keynote speakers and presentations of real-life examples of how to get the most out of 3D machine control as part of wider geospatial technologies.

Keynote speakers will include Ola Rollén, Hexagon president and chief executive, who will address the role information technologies play in fuelling curiosity and materialising imagination into action. Rollén will highlight aspects of Hexagon’s portfolio, empowering business and industry to discover, answer, refine and, ultimately, innovate.

Following Rollén will be Doug Menuez, a photographic journalist who captured the stories, struggles, failures and sacrifices of the pathfinders of Silicon Valley and their quests to invent the impossible. He will share first-hand accounts of what it takes to be fearless – a fearless genius.

As part of the presentations, HxGN Live attendees will hear Ron Singh, chief of surveys within the geometronics unit of the 2648 Oregon Department of Transportation, explain the importance of 3D machine control being connected to other systems and processes.

Surveying, designing, and constructing a section of highway is only a brief moment in the long life of a road. State departments of transportation have responsibilities for infrastructure far beyond its design and construction and need to continually benefit from work performed and data developed during any stage of a road’s lifespan.

That is why having 3D machine control working as part of larger processes provides significant benefits during the long-term maintenance and operation of transportation infrastructure.
