RDO Equipment Co., together with Carlson Software and Vermeer, developed an automated GPS-based machine control system for your pile drives: Carlson PD Grade. We are proud to be the exclusive seller of this technology in the U.S.

• Originally developed for the Vermeer PD10 pile driver, Carlson PD Grade is adaptable to work on all pile drivers in the market.
• Users confirm they place piles more accurately and efficiently than by using the traditional staking method.
• The system allows the ability to track all information on each pile that is installed. An extensive log is created that shows actual location and elevation, average pile time, average azimuth, number of piles driven, time to drive each pile and more.
• Technology delivered to contractors wherever they are located and supported through our best-in-class  Solutions Center.

Carlson PDGrade, the complete machine control for pile driving solutions, combines software and precision GPS technology. Solar, construction, and other applications use the positioning software for pile driving among other uses.

• We know that coming close, just isn't close enough. In pile driving, accuracy means everything. Manual methods used by some operators can lead to inaccurate results.
• Carlson Machine Control for pile driving provides operators with on-machine guidance and supervisors with project and machine insights.
• Supervisors can communicate with machines, send projects to their team, and generate reports, and more in real-time
• Pile drivers, post drivers, or a pile hammer, whichever you prefer, stop guessing, and start knowing, with Carlson Machine Control. It's time to increase your capability and productivity.
