Futtura MCR1w / 2w / 3w

Machine Control Receivers

Economical Machine Control Solutions!

MCR receivers from Futtura are designed to adapt to any earth moving machine. Ideal for grading, trenching and excavating.

MCRw receivers from Futtura are designed to adapt to any earth moving machine. All receivers feature The MCRw receivers work with rotating lasers. The laser provides a reference plane of laser light over the jobsite. The MCRw is mounted above the machine's cutting edge on grading equipment or on the dipper arm of excavation equipment. The receiver is initially set on-grade to a known desired elevation or benchmark. As the machine is used and the blade or bucket is moved, the operator is given a visual indication of which direction to move the blade or bucket to get to on-grade, effectively checking grade from the cab.
