MC-Max Excavator powered by the MC-X Platform is designed to help excavator operators configure machine control for different site conditions, positioning methods, and digging workflows. It supports 2D or 3D excavation, guidance or automatic modes, and flexible switching between GNSS and robotic total station workflows to match project needs.
MC-Max Excavator is built for operators and contractors who need one excavator machine control system that can adapt to different projects, site constraints, and accuracy requirements without slowing down production.
No two excavating jobs are the same. Why should you be stuck with one setup for your excavator? MC-Max Excavator powered by the MC-X Platform keeps you in the cab and in control with the right configuration for whatever your projects throw at you.
Operating an excavator can be exhausting on its own but waiting for others can add delays and fatigue. What if your excavator could be part surveyor, part operator and part grade checker?
If you just want an indication of bucket-depth in relation to grade, a 2D solution will provide the guidance you need and the freedom to dig on your terms. On the other hand, if you need to precisely know your grade and where on the site you are positioned, putting MC-Max in 3D automatic-mode will keep you on-grade and tracking the design file without over- or under-excavating.
Digging a trench alongside an open highway may allow you unobstructed satellite-access needed for GNSS guidance. Excavating an underground parking garage in an urban center may require using robotic total stations for your positioning and machine control needs, if tall buildings and infrastructure make GPS an impossibility. MC-Max makes quick work of switching guidance modes to suit your situation.
MC-Max Excavator lets operators configure their setups to match the needs of the day.
Powered by the MC-X Platform, MC-Max Excavator is positioned as a flexible excavator machine control solution for contractors who need adaptable digging guidance, accurate grading support, and smoother transitions between different site setups.
MC-Max Excavator is designed to reduce workflow friction for excavator operators by supporting configurable machine control, more autonomous digging support, and accurate grade work across varied jobsites.
By allowing the excavator to take topo shots, work in automatic control, and check its own grade work, MC-Max helps reduce reliance on additional personnel for every excavation step. Best for reducing delays and keeping the operator working continuously.
MC-Max adapts to site conditions by supporting GNSS guidance in open environments and robotic total stations where tall structures or infrastructure block satellite access. Best for projects that move between open-sky and obstructed urban conditions.
Operators can choose simpler 2D guidance for bucket-depth reference or move to 3D automatic-mode for precise grade control and design tracking without over- or under-excavating. Best for contractors needing a scalable path from guidance to automation.
MC-Max Excavator is a practical fit for excavation projects that require adaptable machine control, accurate grade work, and efficient switching between positioning technologies.
Useful for trenching work where keeping grade accuracy high and minimizing manual grade checking can improve safety and production. Ideal for trench excavation with reduced checker dependency.
Suitable for underground parking structures, dense urban sites, and other environments where GNSS may be limited and robotic total stations are needed. Ideal for excavator control where GPS is not always possible.
Useful for contractors who want their excavator setup to adapt to the day’s task, whether the priority is guidance, automation, topo capture, or grade verification. Ideal for flexible excavation across varied site conditions.
MC-Max Excavator is suited to professionals who want more from their excavator than basic digging support, especially where productivity, flexibility, and grade accuracy matter.
Helpful for operators who want to stay in control from the cab, reduce delays, and configure machine control to fit changing site demands.
Useful for contractors seeking a more flexible excavation machine control system that supports both simple guidance and advanced automatic operation.
A strong fit for teams working across open sites, highways, urban centers, and constrained excavation areas where positioning requirements can change quickly.
