Precision pinpointing

Leica Geosystems says that its TS30 package is a new high precision Total Station that meets highest standards in all surveying applications. Distances can now be measured with Leica Geosystems' proven PinPoint EDM Technology with an unprecedented precision of 0.6mm + 1ppm on prisms. On natural surfaces a high accuracy of 2mm + 2ppm up to 1,000m can be achieved.

Precise positioning is possible with the new TS30 package from Leica Geosystems
265 Leica Geosystems says that its TS30 package is a new high precision Total Station that meets highest standards in all surveying applications. Distances can now be measured with Leica Geosystems' proven PinPoint EDM Technology with an unprecedented precision of 0.6mm + 1ppm on prisms. On natural surfaces a high accuracy of 2mm + 2ppm up to 1,000m can be achieved.

New direct drives using piezo technology were developed for the Leica TS30, allowing high tracking performance, with maximum acceleration and speed while maintaining accuracy under demanding conditions. This new technology allows automated one-person surveying and higher productivity.

Combined with the firm's Leica SmartWorx software, users can set the package up as a Leica TS30 SmartStation with the latest future proof GNSS antenna to provide immediate station coordinates. With the GNSS antenna on top of the 360° prism as a SmartPole, quick and accurate set-up can be achieved on-the-fly.

Features of the TS30 include long service intervals and low power consumption as well as a durable construction to withstand severe environments. The piezo drives allow for longer operation through low power consumption with sophisticated power management.

    The latest developments in drilling rigs can help boost efficiency in quarry producion applications - Mike Woof reports. Efficient drilling and blasting operations can have a huge impact on production costs in quarrying. Accuracy of hole direction and depth, as well as optimum blast design and explosives use, are critical for efficient blasting work. Ineffective blasting can result in high quantities of fines of low commercial value as well as over-sized material requiring secondary breaking. This impacts o
