Xwatch have a range of systems designed to add an extra layer of safety for excavators

The Xwatch XW range includes a variety of systems designed to add an extra layer of safety for excavators with height and slew limiters and rated capacity indicators (RCI).

With dealers in more than 20 countries, Xwatch technology is designed and manufactured in the UK using what the company says is the highest quality components sourced from leading technology manufacturers.

The systems have undergone the most rigorous testing scenarios before being launched, both within the construction industry and the rail industry worldwide, it adds.

Xwatch and Leica Geosystems recently announced a global partnership that included the launch of an integration between Leica iCON MC1 machine control and Xwatch XW systems, said to be a global first and a revolution in safety for the industry.  

Global Survey has been a Leica Geosystems dealer in New Zealand for more than 35 years and is well placed to provide innovative construction technology solutions to the civil construction industry, says Xwatch. 

"We’re excited to bring Xwatch into our technology offering; it represents a natural progression for our business with the new integration with Leica Geosystems. It’s clear that solutions like the XW series are growing in demand. Managing the people/plant interface is vitally important in improving site safety," says Ray Copeland, managing director at Global Survey.
