Leica TCA 1800 The Automatic Total Station

LEICA TCA 1800

Leica TCA 1800 The high-performance total stations have unique precision. You can tackle demanding tasks in engineering surveying, in tunnel building as well as structural work above and below ground both reliably and with very high precision. The total stations are extremely robust and are excellently suited to continuous applications such as permanent structure monitoring or for controlling machines.

Engineering survey
Monitoring of existing structures and as well as those under construction, manual or automatic convergence measurements, tunnel network observations, and much more.
Advantage: High flexibility in use, even under difficult conditions

Deformation measurement
Monitoring of dams and similar objects.
Advantage: Continuous, timer controlled monitoring measurements with high measuring accu-racy, day and night operation with automatic alarm signalling

In machine control

Earth works
Used for the control of vertical boring machinery and rammers as well as for the alignment of installations and machines.
Advantage: Stakes for marking grid points are superfluous.

Road building, railway building
Used for the control of slab form pavers, bitumes finishers, graders and cutting machines.
Advantage: Due to the continuous online measurements with the total station, the time consuming installation of guide wires for controlling machinery is not necessary

Levelling
Used for the control of rollers of all types.
Advantage: With the use of an automatic total station, expensive machine downtimes for determining height are unnecessary. Even sloped surfaces can be easily worked without interruption.
