Why 3D Machine Control Is a Must on Large Job Sites

In this episode of The Track, RDO Equipment’s Scott Weness visits with Steve Westlund of Westlund Excavating to discuss how 3D machine control technology has helped fuel the company’s growth.

What started as a one-machine operation has grown into a fleet of more than 40 pieces of equipment, with 3D grade control now integrated across nearly every excavator.

Steve shares how excavator machine control improves accuracy, eliminates guesswork and increases efficiency by roughly 50%.

By bringing design files directly into the cab, operators can complete work right the first time, reduce rework and bid jobs with more confidence.

The conversation also highlights Westlund Excavating’s long-standing partnership with RDO Equipment and the role John Deere technology and equipment play in delivering consistent, high-quality results in the field.
