Abstract

See full text

Described are systems and methods for performing a material dump operation at a construction machine. The machine's control unit receives a first user input to activate a material dump mode. The control unit sets a fixed rotation point in a reference frame that is to be at a constant distance from the bucket pin and/or the leading edge of the bucket. The control unit receives a second user input to cause the bucket to uncurl. While the bucket is uncurling, and in response to receiving the second user input while the material dump mode is activated, the control unit generates one or more control signals causing one or more elements of the machine's arm to vertically rotate so as to maintain the constant distance.
