Machine Control for Drilling, Piling and Dynamic Compaction Machines
Less re-work, higher productivity and increased profitability

Trimble Groundworks is a cutting-edge machine control solution engineered to optimise production and maximise revenue across drilling, piling, and dynamic compaction operations. Designed for performance in all conditions, day or night, rain or shine, this advanced system improves drilling accuracy, reduces downtime, and minimises material waste. With real-time data flow between field and office, operators benefit from enhanced workflow efficiency, improved site safety, and reduced reliance on manual processes. Whether you’re managing complex piling projects or high-volume compaction work, Trimble Groundworks empowers you to work smarter, faster, and more profitably across every phase of the job.
Trimble Groundworks Machine Control System
Advanced Trimble positioning technology helps increase the safety, accuracy and efficiency of drilling and piling operations. Integrated solutions bring the office and the field together for less rework, more productivity, and best of all — more profitability.
Trimble Groundworks is a 3D machine control system that improves efficiency and reduces downtime with stakeless navigation, monitoring productivity and quality, and managing design data from office to field. Groundworks delivers a drill holes in a uniform blasting pattern to improve rock fragmentation.

3D or 2D Guidance
Accurate drill depth, direction, and drill hole calculations from any angle or terrain. Reduce over drilling and prevent unnecessary wear on drill bits and hammers. Work faster, with greater precision and consistency.

Improve Site Safety
Avoidance zones alert operators to restricted areas, helping reduce blind spots and improve situational awareness. Minimise on-site risks and remove the need for workers to stand near heavy machinery during operation.

Auto-Stop
Auto-Stop feature eliminates over/under drilling to reduce machine wear and tear. Drill exactly to the required depth every time. Save time, improve accuracy, and protect your equipment from unnecessary stress and costly repairs.

Layout and Record As-Built Data
Reduce time and money spent on surveyors and stakes. Stop pounding stakes and start making money. No need to wait for surveyors. Trimble Groundworks follows the International Rock Excavation Data Exchange Standard (IREDES) standard.

In-Field Operation
Create an in-field design for drilling without the delays of returning to the office. Generate accurate productivity and quality reports on-site. Make fast adjustments, improve decision-making, and keep your project moving without interruptions.
