The Topcon LS-B10W (Part No. 312660111) is a professional-grade wireless machine control receiver engineered for contractors who demand reliable, flexible grade automation across new and retrofitted equipment fleets. Building on the proven LS-B10 platform, the LS-B10W adds wireless data transmission capability, eliminating much of the cab wiring complexity associated with traditional hard-wired laser receiver installations. Whether you're running a motor grader, dozer, excavator, or compact machine, the LS-B10W delivers consistent laser beam detection and precise grade-following performance across demanding jobsite conditions.
Product Overview & Jobsite Applications
The LS-B10W is purpose-built for contractors running Topcon grade control systems on equipment with modern machine architecture. Its wireless communication capability makes it an ideal solution for fleets where minimizing installation downtime is critical. The receiver detects rotating laser signals and communicates grade data to compatible Topcon control boxes and displays without extensive wiring runs through the cab or boom. Ideal applications include highway grading, site development, finish grading for pads and parking lots, trenching operations, and agricultural land leveling where precision and throughput are non-negotiable.
