Leica expands 3D machine control offering for Cat wheeled excavators

Leica Geosystems 3D machine control system on Caterpillar wheeled excavator

LEICA Geosystems has confirmed an expansion of its offering to deliver aftermarket 3D machine control solutions for Caterpillar’s next gen wheeled excavators.

The move follows the 2023 launch of the Leica MC1 3D machine control solution for Caterpillar’s next gen hydraulic tracked diggers.

The new solution will be available starting in March 2026 and is designed to enable operators to execute complex excavation tasks with greater accuracy and confidence.

“With Leica Geosystems machine control now easier to set up on Caterpillar’s next gen wheeled excavators, operators benefit from a smoother start and can get to work faster,” said Martin Verdurmen, president, machine control division, Hexagon. “The Leica MC1 solution is tailored to enhance performance, reduce downtime, and support sustainable construction practices. Paired with Caterpillar’s tough machines, it gives operators a reliable setup for everyday work on site.”

Interested customers can enquire about compatibility requirements, licensing options, and support at their local Cat dealer. The sale and support of the Leica MC1 3D aftermarket machine control system will be managed through authorised Leica Geosystems channels.
