CAT 279C with 4i1 tiltbucket levelling.wmv

This machine is mainly modified to work in Railway works, like repairs and gravel transport & levelling for the rail tracks. We call it "RailCat".
It's a 4i1 multipurpose bucket, with build-in tilt functionality (+/- 5% tilt range), The bucket has fixed sides, which can be bolted on or off.
It's really working very well with Trimble Machine Control, and is purpose build for this type if machine & application. The load sensing hydraulic system has been purpose modified and build for this machine control system, it's special but it works.
The Trimble system will automatically control lift/lower & tilt function, it can work with following types of machine control: AS400 slope sensor alone or in combination with Laser (dual or single), UTS totalstation or GPS (dual or single).
Auto/Manual & Offset function is build into the left and right joysticks, so it's all integrated and easy to operate.
You can dig, excavate, level, carry with the bucket, just like you normally would, if you want to spread out material in a certain layer, just press "auto" when you get near the working area, keep the bucket level (pitch) and open bucket when it's time to release the material, then machine will lay material in the wanted layer. Depending on the speed an tuning of valve speeds, you can finish grade for pavement or similiar.

Whom would I contact @ PON that could speak to me in English about the interface on this machine?
