Leica MC1

3D machine control software for your construction site

MC1

To support the digitisation of the heavy construction industry, Leica Geosystems offers a revolutionising software platform for all machine control solutions. Consolidating all machine applications, Leica MC1 is the one-for-all software solution platform to guide and automate all heavy construction machines.

Leica MC1 machine control software continues to evolve towards achieving a smart digital reality, with features like Modify Models and surface logging. Comparing the design model to the actual position of the machine’s cutting edge, such as the bucket or blade edge, MC1 assists the operator to position the machine to achieve the planned design while allowing for a live digital representation of the progress. MC1 software automatically controls the position of the machine’s cutting edge, increasing efficiency for operators on construction sites.

Leica MC1 is carried by the rugged hardware platform, the Leica MCP80 panel and MDS Series docking station, ensuring an interchangeable panel between machines on a job site. The new MC1 platform is fully integrated into the heavy construction workflow, supported by the cloud-based Leica ConX productivity platform for more efficient management of heavy construction projects.

 

Improved Data handling


MC1 software simplifies design data handling and is open to all standard design data types, enabling a flexible dataflow to support common workflows on a job site. All machinery on the construction site, as well as Leica Geosystems’ field solution iCON site, are now running on the same design data structure, meaning that no data conversion is required. Furthermore, a seamless data transfer between machines, field units within the job site and office are guaranteed.

Reduce costs, increase productivity


Consistency in software design throughout all heavy machine control applications reduces our customers’ training efforts and optimises their learning curve. The same software platform can be used with different sensor configurations, which improves scalability and training. Furthermore, installers benefit from simplified installation and service processes.

Simplified Work Progress


Get the job done faster and with accuracy by an intuitive and easy-to-use user interface. Work more efficiently with MC1’s surface logging functionality for excavators, dozers, graders, rollers and snow groomers. The surface log displays a live colourful heatmap, to indicate the tool edge and target height distance. With Modify Models, the machine operator can follow the work progress live on the MC1 run screen. An intelligent licensing system facilitates adding another machine solution, giving users complete flexibility in their machine control solutions.

Increase Safety Awareness


PA80 integrates a unique alert solution with MC1 machine control software to raise worker awareness and help prevent on-site accidents. The machine operator receives visual and audible warnings directly on the in-cabin display. Pedestrians with a PA10 tag can trigger a panic alert that will notify the machine operators or vehicle drivers with PA10 or PA80 within the 50 m range. Integration into MC1 allows for less hardware in the cabin and one point of focus which will increase the operator’s overview of the construction site.
