Mara - Livellatrici Laser

Scraper for agricultural soil

Mara Laser is a business company that for 30 years and more has been analyzing, producing and marketing laser and GPS controlled laser levellers, calling on clients in about 30 states everywhere in the world.
Thanks to GPS and laser control technologies, it is feasible to achieve important results in different areas of use: from agricoltural ground to sport facilities, from building constructions to road excavations, from landscaping to ground scraping.
Mara’s levellers ensure a series of returns and high productivity in more than one situations: from the machine operating speed regime, to a total trustworthiness and certainty of the result.

Mara’s technology

The technology used by Mara is what makes it unbeatable, and the results obtained all over the world are proof of this. Laser and GPS receiver technologies give an unique performance, in particular when they are combined.

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 positioned on a tripod that sees the natural inclination of the land and communicates the signal to the receiver, which is instead positioned on the machine itself.
The laser beam, for its internal characteristics, enables very high preciseness even over long land portions. After getting the signal, a technologically perfectioned rotating pentaprism, positioned on these machines, gives back an ideal planning for the leveller to follow while operating.
The receiver also plays a very important part, 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 type fo ground and receive the 360° signal, even if it could be poor or it goes through interference.
On the leveller, besides, there is a control system to remove external interference. It lowers wind sound, automatically captures the signal and sets the power of the tractor.

GPS receiver technology

GPS technology, after all, is used to regulate the position of the leveller and the height of the blade.
The levellers, that adopt this technology, obtain the laser signal from the satellites: even in this situation the planning is illustrated 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 obtained, even though this technology offers minor accuracy than laser technology: GPS systems are subject to fluctuations for the periodic change of constellation of the satellites.
In any case, the minor preciseness is compensated by the wide elasticity of use, in particular when this technology is used to work on large land sections with more than one inclinations, such as agricoltural ground and building constructions.

Integrated laser + GPS system

Mara Laser has created and manufactured an integrated system that matches the precision of laser technology with the potential of GPS, perfect for tough land.
The higher preciseness 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 regulate the height of the tractor leveller and the precise spot of the blade itself.
The creation of the 3D map of the land enables to highlight the land sections that has to be scraped, the loading areas, the starting point, and the best way that enables 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 important preciseness and elasticity of the levellers manufactured by Mara Laser secure their use in more than one areas:

  • Laser levelling machines for agriculture:
    Mara’s laser levellers, among the different conveniences secure a important increase of the arable land sections. They enable a reduction in the amount of water used, an increased production, a considerable reduction of chemicals used, as well as seeds. The lowering 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 lowering of work hours and the possibility of obtaining an absolute perfect slope for water to flow down, are other conveniences that make these machines priceless and incomparable in this areas.
  • Laser levelling machines for earth-moving:
    the superbe performance of the Mara levellers enables to move large amount 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 inclination, are attained.
  • Laser levelling machine for sportsground:
    this type of technology can be utilized very well in this field as it makes possible to level even existing areas, repairing soil depressions 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 doable to work for the maintenance of green spaces. In this way, the right inclination and also a fabulous aesthetic result are ensured.
  • Laser grader machines for roads:
    in this field, important results are attained thanks to the capacity of the Mara’s laser graders to perform the same job as the motor grader, with minor costs and more convenient times. In addition, there are important conveniences, for example specialized labor is no longer necessary, on top to the fact that the use of fine materials is reduced.
