Bobcat introduced its Depth Check system option for its E32, E32i, E35, E35i, E42, E45, E50 and E55 compact excavators.
This grade control system was designed to increase performance, profitability and productivity, says the company. It utilizes three sensors that are connected to the instrument panel inside the cab to track the precise location of the bucket teeth as the bucket, boom and arm move.
The system can complete a variety of tasks, including digging to a desired depth, benching off a grade post that is within reach and setting the depth target at minimum cover value.
According to Bobcat, this system can be calibrated to a specific machine as well as up to five corresponding bucket attachments. It can be accessed by the instrument panel’s menu bar and comes available with two Depth Check system laser receiver options.
