S Type X

With over 20 years of experience delivering cutting edge technology to the construction industry, Pat Bulcock and Claire Plant’s newest venture, S Type X have added what they believe to be a gamechanger for the market.

With the popularity of machine control systems growing, S Type X have recently been appointed as the UK and Ireland dealer the Novatron Xsite® range of machine control systems. ‘We believe there is a place in the market for the system which can offer users a wide range of machine control solutions.’ Bulcock comments. ‘We have had many years of experience working alongside some of the leading manufacturers and whilst we could compete alongside them with Xsite®, we wanted to offer a simple and accurate solution to small and medium sized operators, many of which don’t require the complex packages supplied by other brands. This is the reason we have decided to launch Xsite®Easy, a cost effective yet comprehensive 2D solution to machine control.’

The Xsite®Easy system offers users a simple and easy to follow menu system in the 5 inch in-cab monitor allowing them to quickly and accurately set up their machine. The system offers fast and accurate measuring of depth, distance, and slope and with real-time visualization of the bucket and target-level orientation, the operator can quickly reduce time and costs on site. The system has been developed to suit a wide range of applications and comes with full tiltrotator integration and waterproof G series sensors allowing it to be used in dredging applications.

‘We are very excited about bringing Xsite®Easy to the UK and Irish markets.’ Bulcock said. ‘The industry has been needing a high quality and robust system like this this for a long time.’

S Type X are the UK’s leading dealer for a range of construction and agricultural equipment aftermarket parts including light bars, buckets and hitches and a range of customisation accessories.
