Trimble® and Hyundai Construction Equipment have announced that the new line of Hyundai HD130A bulldozers is now available with a Trimble Ready® 3D option direct from the factory for customers worldwide.

A Trimble Ready version of the HD130A was first introduced in North America in late 2024, and the expansion of the option will now allow customers across the globe to benefit from the technology.

The new feature means HD130A dozers can be shipped from the factory with a Trimble Ready kit, enabling easy onsite installation of the Trimble Earthworks grade control platform on both the HD130A XL and HD130A LGP models. Trimble Earthworks integrates project design into the dozer cab and automatically adjusts the blade position, helping operators of all skill levels to deliver faster, more accurate and more productive results.

Scott Crozier, vice president of civil construction field systems at Trimble, said: "The Trimble Ready Hyundai HD130A bulldozer is another way earthmoving contractors can seamlessly connect their digital and physical worlds. On this dozer model in particular, Trimble technology is integrated on-machine to simplify installation and maximize productivity for Hyundai customers, helping them accelerate their return on investment."

Alongside the Trimble Ready option, both companies have confirmed their commitment to developing operator assist features for construction machinery and increasing collaboration on cloud-based solutions for connected worksites.

Gert Peeters, product manager at Hyundai Construction Equipment Europe (HCEE), added: "The Trimble Ready HD130A dozers represent a further step forward in delivering intelligent, high-performance machines to our customers. Working with Trimble enhances our ability to offer precision and productivity straight from the factory. We're excited to deepen our relationship with Trimble as we continue to innovate together. This collaboration is key to bringing smarter, more connected solutions to the jobsite."

The Trimble Earthworks 3D option for Hyundai HD130A dozers is now available internationally through SITECH dealers and selected authorised resellers. The system supports a variety of sensor configurations, including:

Dual GNSS + cross slope (cab mount)

UTS + cross slope (blade mount)

GNSS (single) + cross slope (blade mount)

Dual laser + cross slope (blade mount)

Single laser + cross slope (blade mount)
