Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0412402A1] The invention relates to a control method for earth-moving machines, such as bucket wheel excavators (5), gravel-bed receivers, etc., in which the morphology, determined in advance, of a deposit or the stratification of embedded material serves as command variables for the movements of the earth-moving machine. The profile of the material to be conveyed is continuously scanned by a light beam (14), and the values determined by the scanning are used as a control variable for the movements of the earth-moving machine. <IMAGE>
