AZA 1028 TOTAL STATION

Description

The Total Station is a revolutionary surveying instrument that merges the functionality of an electronic theodolite, electronic distance measurement (EDM) system, and data recorder into one advanced tool. Available at Azalab, this high-performance device provides fast and accurate measurements of horizontal angles, vertical angles, and distances, making it indispensable for civil engineers, construction firms, land surveyors, and GIS professionals.

High-Precision Distance and Angle Measurement

With a built-in EDM system, the total station offers millimeter-level accuracy in distance measurement over ranges exceeding 1,000 meters using prisms, and up to 500 meters reflectorless. It calculates 3D coordinates (X, Y, Z) instantly, reducing field time and manual error.

Measurement Modes:

• Single and continuous angle reading

• Reflectorless and prism-based distance measurement

• Coordinate and stakeout mode

• Remote elevation and missing line functions

These capabilities make it a perfect solution for:

• Site layout & topographic mapping

• Road, tunnel & railway alignment

• Utility mapping & structural monitoring

User-Friendly Interface

Modern total stations feature graphical touchscreens, alphanumeric keyboards, and easy-to-navigate software. The Azalab model provides:

• A color touchscreen interface

• Guided workflows for layout & topography

• Internal storage and SD card/USB slots

• Real-time Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connectivity

Surveyors can save points, perform calculations, and transfer files directly to CAD/GIS platforms via USB or Bluetooth. This enables seamless integration with back-office software like AutoCAD, QGIS, and other mapping tools.

Data Logging & Transfer

The instrument includes:

• Internal memory (10,000–50,000 points)

• SD card support

• USB port & Bluetooth for fast data export

• Support for common file formats (CSV, DXF, TXT)

Field data is easily retrievable and compatible with surveying and mapping software used in both government and private sectors.

Built to Last

Field conditions can be harsh, but the Azalab Total Station is designed to withstand dust, water, and temperature variations. It typically comes with:

• IP55/IP66 rating for dust and water resistance

• A long-life rechargeable Li-ion battery (8–16 hrs)

• A durable outer casing with an ergonomic handle

This ensures consistent performance whether you’re mapping highways in blazing heat or doing layout work in humid, rainy zones.

Application Areas

This all-in-one device is suited for multiple professional scenarios:

• Land subdivision and boundary surveys

• Construction layout and alignment

• Mining and geological exploration

• Topographic data collection

• Utility corridor & telecom tower planning

• Hydrographic & environmental monitoring

Educational institutes offering diploma and degree programs in civil engineering, surveying, and geoinformatics also prefer the total station for practical labs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q1: What does a total station measure?
A: It measures horizontal/vertical angles, slope distances, and calculates X, Y, Z coordinates.

Q2: Is a prism required for measurement?
A: No. It supports reflectorless mode for short-range tasks and prism mode for longer distances.

Q3: Can data be exported to AutoCAD?
A: Yes. Files can be exported in CSV or DXF format for use in AutoCAD and GIS software.

Q4: Does it work in low light or rainy conditions?
A: Yes. With IP-rated protection and backlit display, it operates efficiently in all environments.

Q5: Is it suitable for educational use?
A: Absolutely. Many engineering colleges and polytechnics use total stations for surveying lab work and training.
