Essen, 23.09.2024 – DMT GmbH & Co. KG, an independent, global engineering and consulting company, launches the newest model of the GYROMAT series at INTERGEO 2024: the GYROMAT 6000, the most accurate gyroscope measuring system for high-precision surveys, such as tunnel construction or shipbuilding. It combines the tradition of absolute precision of the GYROMAT series with a new feature that allows the gyroscope to access even the most difficult and confined spaces like microtunnels and ship hatches.
The presentation of the GYROMAT 6000 at INTERGEO 2024 (24th-26th September), an exhibition and platform for innovative solutions in geoinformation technology, reflects DMT’s commitment to innovation and excellence and is a significant step forward in the evolution of precision surveying technology. Jens-Peter Lux, DMT Managing Director and Head of Natural Resources & Infrastructure of the TÜV NORD GROUP Business Unit Energy & Resources, highlights how the GYROMAT 6000’s combination of high precision and portability is set to redefine surveying: “The GYROMAT 6000 is the next generation in surveying, providing engineers with unparalleled accuracy and reliability. Its advanced features, especially its portability, will significantly improve the surveying process and allow engineers to push the boundaries of what is possible in precision measurement in challenging terrain and under difficult conditions.”
The GYROMAT 6000 is the most accurate surveying gyroscope in the world as it reliably points north and compensates for potential sources of error like refraction, error propagation or even plumb line errors when determining direction from a shaft and delivering measurement results with an accuracy of 0.8/1000th of a gon. Dr. Jörg Niese, product manager at DMT and in charge of the GYROMAT series, explains how accurately the GYROMAT 6000 measures with the following example: “If you were to cut a cake into 400 pieces and then cut one of these little pieces of cake into 1,000 even smaller pieces, then you would have an idea of the accuracy involved. And the beauty of the GYROMAT 6000 is that you can use it for measurements anywhere: in a tunnel, in a ship’s hull or in an industrial hall.” This is possible because the GYROMAT 6000 can operate where GPS signals are unavailable and it now comes with the ability to separate the gyroscope module from the total station which makes it easy to transport it into the smallest spaces like microtunnels or through ship-hatches. With fully automated measurement sequences, pre-orientation-free measurement procedures and advanced monitoring functions the GYROMAT 6000 stands as a proof of precision and adaptability that is applicable in tunnel construction, shipbuilding, aerospace, and industrial surveying.
With the launch of the GYROMAT 6000, DMT continues the success story of the GYROMAT series as the gold standard of survey gyroscopes. The GYROMAT gyroscopes are renowned for ensuring high-precision orientation and control anytime, anywhere and for providing high-precision measurements for cost-effective planning reliability. Due to their unmatched accuracy, DMT’s GYROMAT series are the number one measuring instruments for control measurements in many of the world’s largest tunnel construction projects like the Eurotunnel, the Brenner Base Tunnel, and the Gotthard Base Tunnel.
