Sokkia introduces new high-performance manual total station

“Whether operators need an instrument for jobs such as site layout or perhaps as-built survey, the iM-50 offers the perfect solution with high-end performance and exceptional functionality,” said Ray Kerwin, director of global surveying products.

The iM-50 EDM features a prism range of up to 4,000 m and up to 500 m in reflectorless mode with a 1.5 mm/2 ppm accuracy. “The beam can precisely measure walls, corners, manholes on the road surface, even chain-link fences and tree branches. It offers a rapid distance measurement of 0.9 seconds regardless of the target,” he said.

The instrument offers integrated Bluetooth® technology for connectivity with the controller.

Additional features include 50,000 points of internal memory, or up to 32GB USB flash drive external support, SDRbasic on-board software, and IP66 certification for operation in tough job site conditions.
