Mara Laser is a business company that for over 30 years has been analyzing, producing and trading laser and GPS controlled laser levellers, turning towards buyers in about 30 nations all over the world.
Thanks to GPS and laser control technologies, we can get to significant results in different sectors of use: from agricoltural ground to sportsground, from building constructions to road excavations, from landscaping to ground scraping.
Mara’s levellers ensure a series of returns and high capacity in various situations: from the machine functioning speed regime, to a total trustworthiness and assurance of the result.
Mara’s technology
The technology used by Mara is what makes it unique, and the results acquired all over the world witness this. Laser and GPS receiver technologies provide an unrivaled performance, mostly when they are used together.
Laser technology
Laser technology is applied to the levellers in a way that without stopping synchronize the height of the blade.
The laser leveller, the laser beam transmitter and the laser beam receiver are parts of the laser control system for levelling.
The transmitter is located on a tripod that examines the natural gradient of the land and communicates the signal to the receiver, which is instead positioned on the machine itself.
The laser beam, beacuse of its internal characteristics, permits very high accuracy even over long sections of land. After getting the signal, a technologically perfectioned rotating pentaprism, positioned on these machines, gives back an ideal planning for the leveller to follow while functioning.
The receiver also has an important role, because it correctly reads the laser light received from the transmitter, through special photodiodes. The receivers, manufactured by Mara Laser, guarantee the levellers will be able to work on any kind of soil and receive the 360° signal, though it could be low or experiences interference.
On the laser leveller, moreover, there is a control system to annul external interference. It lowers wind rumble, automatically intercepts the signal and sets the power of the tractor.
GPS receiver technology
GPS technology, after all, is used to settle the position of the laser leveller and the height of the blade.
The levellers, that implement this technology, obtain the laser signal from the satellites: even in this situation the planning is defined by the signal and reproduced on the land.
Lately, thanks to technological progress and the use of dedicated software, an accuracy of ± 10 mm has been reached up, even though this technology offers poorer accuracy than laser technology: GPS systems are subject to fluctuations beacuse of the periodic change of constellation of the satellites.
In any case, the poorer accuracy is compensated by the wide elasticity of use, mostly when this technology is used to work on large parts with various inclinations, such as agricoltural ground and building constructions.
Integrated laser + GPS system
Mara Laser has produced and manufactured an integrated system that matches the precision of laser technology with the potential of GPS, perfect for harsh land.
The higher accuracy of the laser signal lays out the plan within a radius of 1300 meters, while the GPS system communicates the precise spot of the leveller. Thus, the Mara system can settle the height of the tractor leveller and the precise spot of the blade itself.
The creation of the 3D map of the land permits to highlight the parts that has to be scraped, the loading areas, the point where to start, and the best route that allows to do the greatest job possible, with both the tractor and the leveller in the right position.
Thus, the operator will have instant instructions through the constant updating of the data by the system.
Fields of application
The significant accuracy and elasticity of the levellers manufactured by Mara Laser ensure their use in various fields:
- Laser levelling machines for agriculture:
Mara’s laser levellers, among the different plus ensure a important increase of the arable parts. They permits a reduction in the amount of water used, they can provide more abundant harvest, a less use of chemicals, as well as seeds. The decrease in work hours, moreover, makes the use of these machines a sure investment. - Laser levelling machines for construction:
Mara Laser provides an absolute perfect precision to obtain ground floors with very reduced deflections (max 4 mm) and to annul cavities and gaps that would, afterwords, be filled with concrete. The decrease of work hours and the possibility of obtaining an absolute perfect slope for water to flow down, are other plus that make these machines incomparable and incomparable in this fields. - Laser levelling machines for earth-moving:
the superbe performance of the Mara levellers permits to move large quantity of soil very quickly and with low power. In this way, shorter work hours, lower costs and greater accuracy in creating the horizontal plan and gradient, are reached. - Laser levelling machine for sportsground:
this type of technology can be utilized very well in this field as it enables to level even existing sectors, repairing soil depressions without replacing the lawn. - Laser levelling machines for greenhouses:
thanks to the accuracy, reduced size and easy handling of Mara laser levellers, it is also feasible to work for the maintenance of green spaces. In this way, the right gradient and also a great aesthetic result are ensured. - Laser grader machines for roads:
in this field, important results are reached thanks to the capability of the Mara’s laser graders to provide the same job as the motor grader, with poorer costs and more convenient times. In addition, there are important plus, for example specialized labor is no longer necessary, on top to the fact that the use of fine materials is reduced.
