Easy use, low cost, real time

Set depth, follow indicator, reach depth.

Take control of your jobsite with the most innovative & affordable, real-time, depth/grade control tool on the market. The iDig System works with all excavating equipment, allowing you to get the job right first time.

This one-man system reduces labor, saves time and money. It's easy to install, with radio transmission between components, solar powered sensors fitted to the boom by magnets & fast-fit fixing plates. Depth grade calculation is shown immediately and information given to the operator by a colour LED indicator.

iDig
  • Depth
  • Distance
  • Slope

How does the iDig System work?

  1. Three sensors mounted on boom, dipper stick & bucket, measure respective angles
  2. The calculated position is then shown on the cab display
  3. Stair-stepping LED’s show the direction to move for your desired position

Real-time depth indication

Enter desired depth & the iDig guides you there

Real-time distance indication

Place bucket teeth on start point, enter digging distance, follow iDigs’ horizontal LEDs.

Real-time slope indication

Enter slope as +/- or X/Y - iDig guides you there. Can calculate relative slope.

WhicH iDig is right for me?
