Trimble and Hyundai Introduce Advanced HD130A Dozers with Trimble Ready Integration
Trimble and Hyundai Construction Equipment are changing the landscape of construction machinery with the latest announcement regarding the HD130A bulldozer. As of August 19, 2025, these bulldozers will be available directly from the factory with a Trimble Ready 3D option that is set to elevate operational efficiency and precision for construction professionals globally.
A New Era for Dozers
The long-awaited Trimble Ready version of the Hyundai HD130A is designed to streamline construction operations by allowing these dozers to be shipped equipped with a Trimble Ready kit. This innovation enables seamless onsite installation of the Trimble Earthworks grade control platform, applicable for both the HD130A XL and HD130A LGP models. The integration of this advanced technology ensures that operators—regardless of their experience level—can optimize their workflows through improved speed and accuracy while executing projects.
What is Trimble Earthworks?
The Trimble Earthworks system revolutionizes construction by placing project designs directly into the dozer’s cab. By automatically adjusting the blade's position based on design parameters, operators can execute earthmoving tasks with enhanced precision. This means that tasks which traditionally took longer can now be completed more rapidly, increasing overall productivity and job site efficiency.
Scott Crozier, Vice President of Civil Construction Field Systems at Trimble, emphasized the significance of this collaboration, stating,
“The Trimble Ready Hyundai HD130A bulldozer is another way earthmoving contractors can seamlessly connect their digital and physical worlds.” This integration is designed to maximize productivity and optimize returns on investment for users.
Collaborative Efforts between Trimble and Hyundai
The partnership between Trimble and Hyundai extends beyond just the HD130A dozer. There is a shared commitment to developing innovative operator assist features that enhance the capabilities of construction machines. Furthermore, both companies are focusing on cloud collaboration to provide integrated solutions for clients. Gert Peeters, Product Manager at Hyundai, noted,
“The Trimble Ready HD130A dozers represent a further step forward in delivering intelligent, high-performance machines to our customers.” He indicated that enhancing the relationship with Trimble is vital for delivering smarter and more connected solutions on job sites.
Local Support and Installation Services
For customers acquiring the Trimble Earthworks 3D grade control option for their Hyundai HD130A bulldozers, a robust local support network is in place. Trimble’s SITECH dealer network, along with selected authorized resellers, will provide installation services, personalized training, and ongoing technical support. This ensures that users can leverage the full potential of the new technology with ease and confidence.
