Mara - Livellatrici Laser

Levelling machines for roads

Mara Laser is a business company that for over 30 years has been analyzing, making and trading laser and GPS controlled laser levellers, calling on clients in about 30 nations all over the world.
Thanks to GPS and laser control technologies, it is feasible to achieve outstanding results in different areas of utility: from agricultural soil to sportsground, from building constructions to road excavations, from landscaping to ground scraping.
Mara’s levellers ensure a series of advantages and high productivity in more than one situations: from the machine functioning speed regime, to a total affidability and assurance of the result.

Mara’s technology

The technology used by Mara is what makes it unique, and the results obtained all over the world testify this. Laser and GPS system technologies provide an unrivaled performance, in particular 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 leveller, the laser beam transmitter and the laser beam receiver are parts of the laser control system for levelling.
The transmitter is put on a tripod that sees the natural gradient of the soil and sends the signal to the receiver, which is instead positioned on the machine itself.
The laser beam, beacuse of its internal characteristics, permits very high preciseness even over long land portions. After getting the signal, a technologically perfectioned rotating pentaprism, positioned on these machines, returns an ideal pianification 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 move on any kind of soil and receive the 360° signal, though it could be poor or it is subjected to interference.
On the leveller, besides, there is a control system to remove external interference. It cuts wind rumble, automatically captures the signal and regulates the power of the tractor.

GPS system technology

GPS technology, however, is used to set the position of the leveller and the height of the blade.
The levellers, that adopt this technology, get the laser signal from the satellites: even in this situation the pianification is illustrated by the signal and reproduced on the soil.
Nowadays, thanks to technological advancement 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 preciseness is compensated by the wide adaptability of use, in particular when this technology is used to work on large land portions with more than one inclinations, such as agricultural soil 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, proper for harsh soil.
The higher preciseness of the laser signal lays out the plan within a radius of 1300 meters, while the GPS system communicates the location of the leveller. Hence, the Mara system can set the height of the tractor leveller and the location of the blade itself.
The creation of the 3D map of the soil permits to highlight the land portions that has to be scraped, the loading areas, the point where to start, and the best way that enables to do the greatest job possible, with both the tractor and the leveller in the right position.
Hence, the operator will have immediate instructions through the constant updating of the data by the system.

Fields of application

The outstanding preciseness and adaptability of the levellers manufactured by Mara Laser secure their use in more than one fields:

  • Laser levelling machines for agriculture:
    Mara’s laser levellers, among the different plus secure a important increase of the arable land portions. They enable 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, furthermore, makes the use of these machines a sure investment.
  • Laser levelling machines for construction:
    Mara Laser gives an absolute perfect precision to obtain ground floors with very reduced deflections (max 4 mm) and to remove cavities and gaps that would, afterwords, be filled with concrete. The decrease of work hours and the possibility of obtaining an absolute perfect inclinatoin for water to flow down, are other plus that make these machines priceless 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 preciseness in creating the horizontal plan and gradient, are gained.
  • Laser levelling machine for sportsground:
    this type of technology can be used very well in this area as it makes possible to level even existing areas, repairing slope without replacing the lawn.
  • Laser levelling machines for greenhouses:
    thanks to the preciseness, 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 fabulous aesthetic result are assured.
  • Laser grader machines for roads:
    in this area, important results are gained thanks to the skills of the Mara’s laser graders to perform 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.
