Builder M / RM Power

Extend your range!

The era of purely mechanical or optical instruments is over. This is the digital era where digital instruments are needed to remain competitive. The digital Builder leads the way in this new era.

With the Leica Builder, Leica Geosystems is aiming experts in the building sector who have up to now shied away from using professional measuring instruments. In the design priority of making the theodolite as easy-to-use as possible, the advantages and the added value of the Leica Builder become evident: its uniquely easy-to-operate control concept and the outstanding product performance accelerates common construction site jobs, e.g. layout or plumbing.

Built for Builders
The rugged Builder stands up to the elements and takes all kinds of weather. And yet it's easily to transport in the carry case that holds most accessories in a single lightweight package.

Accelerates Building
Traditional layouts require many steps and manipulations. The Builder reduces these steps. The Builder R gives an added advantage with fewer set-ups and laser aided layouts.

Multilingual function
Does your crew speak different languages? The Leica Builder is the only instrument of its class with multiple languages onboard. This allows the user to choose the preferred language - simply and with only one keystroke, for improved efficiency and convenience.

Direct.dxf
With "Direct.dxf" functionality, data can be read directly from the instrument in dxf-format and read into AutoCAD® on a PC without any intermediate steps. Coordinates and point numbers can be stored in different layers.

The Leica Builder M power and RM power are robust, reliable and exceptionally easy to use mechanical total stations that escort the contractor at every step of his construction layout or related application. Coupled with outstanding performance and accuracy, Leica Builder M / RM power convince with unrivaled operational simplicity. Simply aim and shoot.

• Graphic Leveling Aid: Fast and convenient setup thanks to the unique leveling aid and the laser plummet.
• Large, alphanumeric keypad with perfectly readable LCD display.
• Graphic Sketches: Graphically display the most significant outline points from the site plan in a sketch format for fast identification and reference.
• Leica PowerSite instrument software covers layout, as-built, area, COGO and many more applications.
• The high quality distance measure delivers accurate results on a handy mini prism up to 1000m (>1000 yds) and is able to measure beyond 3 km (>2 mi) on a single round prism.
• Reflectorless measuring mode with selectable visible laser allows one-man operation without a prism to difficult or dangerous-to-reach places (Builder RM power).

• User guidance and checks reduce handling mistakes and so increase productivity.
• One-man operation reduce time and increase cost savings.
• Switching between reflectorless and prism measurement mode at a button press - for maximum flexibility and productivity.
• PIN-Code feature prevents unauthorized use and makes it unattractive to steal: this reduces insurance costs and increases data security.
• Cell-phone style keypad for "familiar" use - everybody can immediately use it: no downtime.
• Leveling aid and setup anywhere function get you faster to the job for optimized time savings.
