Link-Belt Adds Machine Control Upgrade Kit for 145 X4 Excavator

Sept. 30, 2021

Link-Belt has added a Precision Grade powered by Trimble Earthworks upgrade kit for its 145 X4 excavators.

The 145 X4 kits provide all necessary components, hardware, and software required to upgrade a standard machine to 2D/MG (Machine Guidance) or 2D/MC (Machine Control), or, to upgrade a machine with 2D/MG already installed to a 2D/MC-capable machine.

“The Link-Belt Precision Grade system works in unison with our proprietary hydraulic system called Spool Stroke Control," said Adam Woods, manager for innovation and technology integration at LBX. "With the advancement of integrating the Trimble Earthworks system into our hydraulic system, customers get much more than an off-the-shelf aftermarket grading solution. They get a grade control solution with next-level accuracy and controllability.”
