Leica HDS6000 (HDS)

The Leica HDS6000 features several major “next generation” advances that increase the versatility, portability, and productivity of ultra high-speed, phase-based laser scanning for many as-built survey applications.


The HDS6000 replaces its popular predecessor, the Leica HDS4500 scanner, and takes ultra high-speed, phase-based laser scanning to the next generation with these features:

  • 50% greater range, based on ambiguity interval
  • New compact design with scanner, scan control panel, data storage, and battery integrated into a single, easy-to-carry unit
  • New tilt sensing that allows traversing and resectioning
  • Three scanner control options: integrated side panel, wireless PDA, or full laptop control
  • Higher accuracy for each single point measurement
  • Twice the maximum scan density
  • Integrated battery and data storage- Unmatched portability
  • Ultra-high speed scanning- Reduces time needed
  • Built-in control panel- Easy, standalone use without laptop or PDA
  • Integrated dual-axis (tilt) sensor- Better QA plus efficient traverse workflows that require fewer scan targets
