HARD-LINE, aligning with its brand-agnostic prowess, has launched Bucket Assist at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2023 in Las Vegas, USA, an add-on feature to its TeleOp systems that gives the TeleOp operator a visual representation of the position of the boom and bucket in relation to the ground.

The company’s current and new clients can opt for this feature that, HARD-LINE says, will bring the machine operator closer to the machine without leaving their TeleOp control stations, increasing productivity while continuing to keep the machine operator at a safe distance.

Phil Pelland, Vice President, Sales, HARD-LINE, says: “Tactile feedback from the machine is crucial for any machine operator to judge the position and placement for optimum productivity. This is a solution our customers needed, and we are pleased to deliver.”

In addition to this new feature, HARD-LINE has made an announcement on a new product that, it says, will revolutionise teleoperation. The new product is a compact box that CONNECTs everything from the machine to its operator by enabling successful collaboration between HARD-LINE and its clients. This new product will continue to keep safety at the forefront while also shining the light on a core company value – collaboration – it says.
