Abstract
A mobile working machine includes a working arm which is mounted in an articulated manner, by a first end, on a revolving superstructure of the working machine, and a tool which is mounted in a displaceable manner on a second end of the working arm. The mobile working machine includes a position control device of a working arm. At least one inclination sensor is arranged on the revolving superstructure and at least one inclination sensor is arranged on the working arm. Also, at least one rotation rate sensor is arranged on the working arm. The working machine further includes a calculation unit for processing the signals of the at least one inclination sensor, of at least one additional inclination sensor, and of at least one rotational rate sensor.
