iM-50 Series Intelligent Measurement Total Station
Positioning made easy
The iM-50 Series offers the perfect entry-level site layout andsurvey instrument. The sleek and light iM-50 is made withsuperior Japanese quality and design, built with exceptionalfunction and form in mind.
And like all of our products, you can customize it to meet yourneeds and create your own workflows.
• Integrated construction and survey application software
• Fast, accurate, and powerful EDM
• Reflectorless up to 500 m
• Prism range up to 4,000 m
• Advanced angle accuracy (2” or 5”)
Outstanding performance
Featuring a new EDM, the iM-50 series is fast, accurate, andpowerful. In reflectorless mode, it measures up to 500 m atan incredible 2mm+2ppm accuracy, and has 1.5mm+2ppmaccuracy when measuring up to 4,000 m to standard prisms.
Fast and powerful EDM
The iM-50 series gives you rapid and correct pinpointing withphase shift technology. The ultra-narrow EDM beam canprecisely measure walls, corners, manholes on the road surface,even chain-link fences and tree branches. You get a rapiddistance measurement of 0.9 seconds regardless of the object.
Easy data transfer
Powered with integrated Bluetooth® capability and an internal antenna, the sleek design enables you to deliver measurements cable-free to your data controller.
Rugged and waterproof
With an IP66 certification, the iM-50 seriesis guaranteed to protect against dust andbe waterproof up to one meter. Its ruggedmetal chassis and heavy duty handle standup to even the toughest job sites. Truly anall-weather solution, the iM-50 series canoperate in temperatures ranging from-20ºC to 60ºC.
Ready for the field
The iM-50 series has up to 50,000 pointsof internal memory, and can store anadditional 32GB through the USB.And with the easy-to-use SDRbasicon-board software, you have everythingyou need to get the job done out inthe field.
