Livermore, Calif., U.S./ Capelle A/d Ijssel, the Netherlands – April 19, 2018 – Topcon Positioning Group announces an addition to its GM line of manual total stations designed to provide fast and accurate measurements in a cost-efficient package — the GM-50.
“In a compact and sleek design, the GM-50 offers high-end performance and exceptional functionality for jobs such as site layout or as-built survey,” said Ray Kerwin, director of global surveying products.
The beam is designed to offer a rapid distance measurement of 0.9 seconds regardless of the target. “The iM-50 EDM features a prism range of up to 4,000 m and up to 500 m in reflectorless mode with an incredible 1.5 mm/2 ppm accuracy for accurate measurements in most any entry-level survey or layout application,” said Kerwin.
The instrument has received an IP66 certification for operation in tough job site conditions.
“GM series total stations are thoroughly inspected with dust-proof and water-proof test chambers. In addition, various tests against vibration, drop, temperature, and humidity were successfully passed to achieve the best environmental specifications,” said Kerwin.
Additional features include Bluetooth® connectivity with the controller, as well as 50,000 points of internal memory, or up to 32GB USB flash drive external support.
