Thanks for the demo. How do you go about editing the surface. For example, if you were building a berm, and the only point they supplied was the centre line of the berm, but you needed to make the berm a certain width with slopes on either side. Thanks
Hi Devin, do you have access to the topcon software? Personally I find it easier to design via n4ce, AutoCAD 3D or TBC. The software I use here is a stripped back free version.
@@machinecontrol Thanks Alan, I do have access to the topcon software however I am new to it and just getting into the surface designing and trying to see what the most efficient and cost effective route will be.
@@devinsheremeta1513 Hi! It depends on what data you have available and what is the geometry of the berm you are constructing. If it is a straight line, then topcon onboard program allows you to create points and lines between the points. So in this case i would create a second point for centre line and then by selecting both points create the centre line on the screen. After that you can extend the line to make it correct length. Then you can select the line again and add either a cross section to it or a profile and choose to implement it on right / left or both sides of the axis.
Yes. That will come down to the version of software that is running on the excavator or dozer. If newish then import DWG with triangulation straight in. If import DWG isn't an option that you need to convert to topcon .tn3 (tin)
Hi, when i try to generate a new tin surface with my linework, 3d office crashes, every time. Do you have any idea why this would be? It's a version i got of a Topcon rep on a USB stick.
Hi, if you are bringing in line work data from a CAD file try saving the CAD file as a 200-2003,2004 DXF or DWG it might be that topcon office isn't recognising a newer file version

Great video Sir, this is everything i need to figure out over the next few weeks... thanks for clarity
where i can download the simulator ?

It is possible to go as far as autocad 2010 dwg and dxf it will work fine

do you have a link to downlosd the free version..
