Last week we announced the great new X-Pad Fusion product being added to Geomax's range. But in keeping with their philosophy of innovating, they have also brought out an update to X-Pad Survey and Construction.   There are great new features improving the work with total stations. New controls ensure error free measurements by constantly checking the instrument is in level and there is no false target lock. In case of prism loss, customers can take advantage of the controller’s GPS and start direct search of its position by significantly reducing the locking times. Those who work on site with...

The innovative X-PAD Field Software...

  Rotary lasers are simple animals; you want them to turn on, get level and give you an accurate beam when they spin around. Given that they’re so simple, what would make you choose the Zone range over the plethora of other options on the market? Topcon, Leica, PLS, Stabila and Hilti make their own, along with all the weird and wonderful imports from China. So why is the Geomax Zone range the right choice for you?   1.
