HIGH ACCURACY
Equipped with dual-GNSS receivers and a high-frequency inertial measurement unit (IMU), the TX63 offers survey-grade accuracy of better than ±3 cm. Its advanced EX-Tech modeling algorithms accurately track the bucket's position in real-time, facilitating efficient grading to design surfaces with minimal need for stake-out or check measurements.
EASE OF USE
The TX63 features CHCNAV's McNav software on a user-friendly 10.1" touchscreen display. The interface provides multiple real-time views of essential data, such as model attitude and cut-and-fill information, helping operators visualize the equipment's status easily. Installation, calibration, and setup are streamlined and achievable in just a few hours.

BROAD COMPATIBILITY
Suitable for a wide range of excavator brands, the TX63 supports various radio protocols, including TT450S, Transparent, and Satel 3AS. It also supports global coordinate systems and various coordinate calibration file formats. The system ensures seamless connectivity to both fixed and mobile base stations, with comprehensive satellite constellation support for enhanced positioning accuracy.
DURABLE AND RUGGED DESIGN
Tailored for demanding environments, the TX63 incorporates an industrial-grade IMU sensor with an IP68 rating and 50G impact resistance. Its antenna, enclosed in a robust metal shell, also holds an IP68 rating, featuring anti-interference capabilities. Durable cables are designed for resistance to wear and extreme temperatures, ensuring the TX63's consistent performance in safe and efficient construction operations.
CHCNAV is committed to offering state-of-the-art construction technology solutions, improving efficiency and precision in various applications such as grading, excavation, site preparation, trenching, and more. The TX63 represents a significant advancement in 3D guidance for contractors, providing sophisticated yet affordable solutions to enhance productivity and reduce rework.
