Engcon and Doosan have collaborated to make the Doosan DX225LC-7X series of excavators ready for Engcon's tiltrotator control system.
The Doosan DX225LC-7X is a fully electro-hydraulic excavator with factory provided 2D machine control and the latest Doosan technology. Engcon Ready means that the machine can be equipped with Engcon’s MIG2 Grips and 3rd generation of control system, DC3.
The control system and machine controllers communicate over CAN (Controller Area Network) which allows for a multitude of data to be exchanged between the two systems at very high speeds.
“The deep integration allows Engcon and Doosan to create a better operator experience,” says Fredrik Eklind control system product owner at Engcon. "It allows the operator to get an overview and configure the functions of the MIG2 Grips directly in the Doosan machine display. The high-accuracy Engcon rotation and tilt sensors are also directly integrated with the Doosan semi-automatic machine control solution, weighing, and assist features without the need for a third-party sensor installed in the attachment making it truly integrated with the machine.”
"Engcon tiltrotators as attachments are growing in popularity globally, especially in Europe," says Stephane Dieu, Doosan excavator product manager for Europe. "Making sure that our most advanced machine was prepared for this attachment was important, and having it integrated with the rest of our machine technology offering was crucial. With the technologies combined, the customer can see both improved productivity and flexibility.”
