Topcon’s MC-Mobile solution revolutionizes compact construction workflows by integrating surveying and machine control technologies into a single, modular system. Designed for mini excavators and compact track loaders, MC-Mobile enables contractors to measure, design and build with unprecedented efficiency, precision and autonomy.
At its core, MC-Mobile is a 3-in-1 system that combines layout, machine control and grade verification. This integration allows operators to perform tasks traditionally requiring multiple personnel — such as surveyors, grade checkers and equipment operators — using a single, streamlined interface. The result is a significant reduction in staffing needs and wait times, making it ideal for small to mid-sized job sites.
The system is customizable to use either GNSS or a 3D robotic laser for guidance in all site conditions. These components are designed to be portable and interchangeable, allowing users to move seamlessly between layout tasks and machine operation. The system’s tablet stores digital plans, controls positioning, collects measurements, and communicates directly with the machine, enabling real-time decision-making and adjustments.
Key Benefits:
Stress Reduction: Implementing MC-Mobile on your projects removes the need to coordinate with multiple trades, conflicting timetables, outside influence of errors, and miscommunications between different parties. This system helps keep you in control of your job site at each phase.
Get Paid On Time: Leaving manual construction methods behind and moving into an all-digital workflow allows you to get started faster, work faster, and get paid faster because you have the data to prove it.
Increased Productivity: Operators can begin work immediately upon arriving at the site, eliminating delays caused by layout or grade verification. MC-Mobile enables faster job completion – up to 25% quicker – by streamlining workflows and reducing rework by as much as 50%.
Enhanced Accuracy: The system’s inertial sensors and 3D positioning capabilities ensure precise measurements and grading. This accuracy helps contractors meet specifications the first time, reducing inspection failures and costly corrections.
Cost-Effective Technology: MC-Mobile brings advanced machine control to compact equipment at an accessible price point. Whether part of a large fleet or a standalone machine, mini excavators equipped with MC-Mobile gain functionality previously reserved for full-sized machines.
Versatile Applications: Ideal for a wide range of projects — including small earthmoving, parking lots, curb construction, landscaping, civil works and foot/cycle paths — MC-Mobile adapts to diverse job site conditions and requirements.
Simplified Workflow: The intuitive interface and modular design make MC-Mobile easy to learn and operate. Operators can self-perform layout, excavation, grade checking, and as-built documentation without relying on external crews.
Digital Integration: MC-Mobile supports the use and creation of digital design files, enabling contractors to transition to a fully digital workflow. This capability enhances collaboration, documentation and long-term project management.
By combining the precision of surveying tools with the power of machine control, Topcon’s MC-Mobile empowers contractors to take control of their projects from start to finish. It transforms compact equipment into smart, efficient and highly capable tools for modern construction demands.
