CHCNAV releases TD63 PRO: a High-Precision Automatic Control System for Dozers

CHC Navigation (CHCNAV), a global provider of machine control solutions, has launched the TD63 PRO, an innovative 3D automatic control system designed to enhance grading and earthmoving operations for dozers. Powered by advanced dual GNSS and Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) technology, the TD63 PRO provides centimeter-level precision and consistent horizontal/vertical accuracy regardless of machine position or operating speed. The system's intelligent hydraulic control and high-performance GNSS positioning ensure precise grading results.

"We are excited to introduce the new TD63 PRO system, which is the result of CHC Navigation's expertise in GNSS technology and mechanical control," said Jonny Wang, Product Manager at CHCNAV. "With its singular blade sensor and streamlined installation process, the TD63 PRO system can be set up on any dozer model in less than 6 hours while providing unmatched control and accuracy."

HIGH ACCURACY AUTOMATIC CONTROL

Using dual GNSS and a 100 Hz IMU system, the TD63 PRO achieves centimeter-accurate grading results with fully automated blade movements that are consistently accurate on both sides of the blade tip, regardless of machine position or speed. Meanwhile, its high-performance GNSS receiver provides robust satellite positioning and precise grading on the job site.

EASY TO USE AND EFFICIENT

Designed for efficiency and ease of use, the TD63 PRO features intuitive MCNAV software with a large 10.1" Android touchscreen interface. Installation can be completed in less than 6 hours thanks to its streamlined, single-blade sensor design and software. The system can also be up and running quickly, with calibration taking as little as 30 minutes. Dual 2D and 3D modes can be easily toggled in the software to meet different needs. Masts, antennas, and components can also be quickly mounted and removed to/from transport between vehicles or sites.

COMPATIBILITY ACROSS THE BOARD

The TD63 PRO offers broad compatibility and flexibility. It works with all major dozer models equipped with hydraulic pilot valves. The system supports various industry-standard GNSS RTK correction protocols and calibration file formats for seamless integration. It also covers all major GNSS constellations and supports common design file formats for integration into various workflows. Design file formats such as .rodx, .dxf, and .landxml are also supported.

DURABLE AND RUGGED DESIGN

The TD63 PRO meets stringent durability standards for harsh job site conditions. Its internal IMU sensor features a rugged, shock-resistant design that meets IP67 and 50G ratings. External antennas also use heavy-duty metal housings and are designed to resist interference. Ruggedized cables are designed to resist wear and operate in a wide range of temperature environments. The entire design protects system integrity in diverse projects and extreme environments.
