July 15, 2026

Volvo Active Control Now Available for Unicontrol3D

Unicontrol3D now integrates with Volvo Active Control, making automation-assisted excavation available directly from the Unicontrol3D app on Volvo Co-Pilot.

With the integration, operators can work with 3D machine control and Volvo Active Control in one connected workflow on compatible Volvo machines with Volvo Co-Pilot.

‍

Automation-Assisted Excavation

Volvo Active Control is an add-on to Volvo Dig Assist that can automatically adjust boom and bucket movement to help maintain a pre-set grade.

By making Active Control available through a dedicated function inside Unicontrol3D, operators can combine 3D guidance with automated grade support in a more natural workflow.

This helps support faster and more consistent grading, while keeping the operator in the familiar Volvo Co-Pilot environment.

Built for the Volvo In-Cab Setup

Unicontrol3D runs directly in Volvo Co-Pilot, giving operators access to 3D machine control from the Volvo display already fitted in the cab.

Volvo native functions, such as On-Board Weighing, remain close at hand from the same in-cab setup. With Active Control now available inside Unicontrol3D, more of the operator’s daily workflow is gathered in one place.
