Mara - Niveladoras Laser

GPS levellers for greenhouses and landscaping

Mara Laser is a business company that for over 30 years has been examining, making and trading 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 many sectors 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 capacity in various situations: from the machine operating velocity, to a total trustworthiness and guarantee of the final success.

Mara’s technology

The technology used by Mara is what makes it unbeatable, and the results acquired all over the world witness 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 tilt of the soil and communicates the signal to the receiver, which is instead located 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, located 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, made 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 poor or it goes through interference.
On the leveller, also, there is a control system to remove external interference. It decreases wind sound, automatically reaches the signal and settles the power of the tractor.

GPS receiver technology

GPS technology, however, is used to settle the position of the 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 soil.
Nowadays, thanks to technological advancement and the use of dedicated software, an accuracy of ± 10 mm has been obtained, even though this technology offers less accuracy than laser technology: GPS systems are subject to fluctuations beacuse of the periodic change of constellation of the satellites.
In any case, the less preciseness is compensated by the wide elasticity of use, in particular 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 created and made an integrated system that adds the precision of laser technology with the potential of GPS, the right one for harsh soil.
The higher preciseness of the laser signal shows the plan within a radius of 1300 meters, while the GPS system communicates the location of the leveller. Therefor, the Mara system can settle 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 parts that has to be scraped, the loading areas, the section where to begin, and the best route that enables to make the best work possible, with both the tractor and the leveller in the right position.
Therefor, the operator will have prompt instructions through the constant updating of the data by the system.

Fields of application

The important preciseness and elasticity of the levellers made by Mara Laser assure their use in various fields:

  • Laser levelling machines for agriculture:
    Mara’s laser levellers, among the many plus assure a key increase of the arable parts. They permits a reduction in the amount of water used, an increased production, a less use of chemicals, as well as seeds. The lowering in work times, moreover, makes the use of these machines a sure investment.
  • Laser levelling machines for construction:
    Mara Laser gives a perfect precision to obtain ground floors with very reduced deflections (max 4 mm) and to remove cavities and gaps that would, later, be filled with concrete. The lowering of work times and the possibility of obtaining a 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 amount of soil very quickly and with low power. In this way, shorter work times, lower costs and greater preciseness in creating the horizontal plan and tilt, are gained.
  • Laser levelling machine for sportsground:
    this type of technology can be utilized very well in this area as it enables to level even existing sectors, 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 tilt and also a great aesthetic result are ensured.
  • Laser grader machines for roads:
    in this area, important results are gained thanks to the capability of the Mara’s laser graders to provide the same job as the motor grader, with less costs and more convenient times. In addition, there are key plus, for example specialized labor is no longer needed, besides to the fact that the use of fine materials is reduced.
