Leica Disto D3a BT - Bluetooth Laser Measure



The biggest problem with developing plans through hand drawn sketches, is recording measurements incorrectly. The only time this will be picked up is when the plans are inputted into CAD. By this time it could be too late to re-measure or very costly to correct.

Therefore there is a growing requirement amongst architects and surveyors, to develop buildings plans digitally in real time. Not just taking a laptop with AutoCAD onsite, but also integrating a laser measuring instrument.

Leica DISTO D3a BT
Leica DISTO D3a BT is the perfect instrument for measuring and developing internal building plans in real time direct to CAD software.

Bluetooth
With integrated Bluetooth technology, measurement results are accurately transferred via wireless to a computer. Distances and angles can be transferred from the Leica DISTO D3a BT to a PC (Notebook, Tablet PC, UMPC) or Pocket PC.

Free software
With the free Leica DISTO transfer software, the Leica DISTO D3a BT can be integrated into any software like Excel, Word or CAD. Supplied with the instrument, the free AutoCAD plug-in allows you to transfer the data directly into the program so you can make the drawing just on the jobsite.
The Leica DISTO D3a BT with its navigation keys will allow most of the control from itself.
Please note that you can choose whether you want to transfer all data or the result only.


Precision at the torch of a button
The Leica DISTO D3a BT features a measuring accuracy of ±1mm with an enhanced measuring range of 100m. The Power Range Technology boosts the measuring performance, allowing long range measurements to be taken.

Tilt Sensor
The instrument's inbuilt tilt sensor quickly and simply determines tilts up to ± 45°. This will allow you to measure the angle of a slope or the angle of a corner in a room.

Smart Horizontal Mode
Thanks to the combination of distance and tilt measurements you can determine the precise horizontal distance and indirect height. This is ideal if you need to know the height of roof beams or light fixtures from the floor, for the size of scaffold or access platform required to carryout maintenance.

Leica Disto D3a




The new Leica DISTO D3a has recently been launched, providing an enhanced laser measuring package, more functions and a better looking design.

Leica Geosystems are the leading manufacturer of precision measuring instruments and originally developed the Leica Disto range over 15 years ago. Now into the 6th generation, Leica has always been striving to improve the models proving cutting edge technology with user friendly functions.

Smart Horizontal Mode
Thanks to the combination of distance and tilt measurements you can determine the horizontal distance absolutely precisely. At a touch of a bottom the indirect height can be also displayed.

Area - Painter Function
The Leica DISTO D3a features an Area - Painter function allowing the floor, wall and ceiling areas, volumes and circumference to be recorded. Easy to use and saving you valuable time in calculating materials required.

Multi-functional Endpeice
When you need to measure from a corner, simply flip out the end piece and take the measurement. The instrument will automatically sense the position of the bracket and adjust the measurement accordingly.

Room Angle Calculation
The Leica DISTO D3a features a simple function to allow you to measure the room angles. Ideal when fitting work units and kitchem work surfaces.

Multiple functions
The Leica DISTO D3a can also calculate areas, volumes, room dimensions and various types of Pythagorean functions. A time delay release and enough memory for up to 20 measurements finish off the instruments wide range of functions – a concept designed to make your work easier.

Bosch GLM 250 VF Laser Measure




Robert Bosch recently introduced a new long range laser measuring instrument. Bosch GLM 250 VF provides the longest measuring range up to 250 metres to an accuracy of ±1mm. Telescopic Viewfinder When measuring outside or over long distances, it may be difficult to see the red laser dot. The Bosch GLM 250 VF features an integrated telescopic viewfinder, allowing the operator to accurately position the laser dot on to the location they wish to measure.

High measuring accuracy The new Bosch GLM 250 VF incorporates a high accuracy laser providing ±1mm. Impressive when you think of the instruments maximum measuring range.

Multifunctional Adaptor The Bosch GLM 150 features a multifunctional measurement pin for precise measurement from hard-to reach areas and corners. Ideal when under taking building measured surveys where room diagonals are required.

Low Battery Usage Unlike many other laser measuring instruments, the Bosch range has been design to be as energy efficient allowing 30,000 individual measurements from one set of batteries.
