Mara - Niveladoras Laser

Laser levelling machines for roads

Mara Laser is a business company that for 30 years and more has been examining, producing and marketing laser and GPS controlled levellers, turning towards clients in about 30 states all over the world.
Thanks to GPS and laser control technologies, we can get to significant results in many areas of utility: from agricultural soil 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 running speed regime, to a total affidability and assurance of the result.

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 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 positioned on a tripod that sees the natural gradient of the soil and sends the signal to the receiver, which is instead located on the machine itself.
The laser beam, beacuse of its internal characteristics, enables very high accuracy 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 running.
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, though it could be poor or it is subjected to interference.
On the laser leveller, besides, there is a control system to remove external interference. It decreases wind sound, 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, perceive the laser signal from the satellites: even in this situation the planning is represented by the signal and reproduced on the soil.
Nowadays, 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 beacuse of the periodic change of constellation of the satellites.
In any case, the minor accuracy is compensated by the wide elasticity of use, mostly when this technology is used to work on large land sections with various inclinations, such as agricultural soil and building constructions.

Integrated laser + GPS system

Mara Laser has produced and manufactured an integrated system that connects the precision of laser technology with the potential of GPS, perfect for harsh soil.
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 soil 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 significant accuracy and elasticity of the levellers manufactured by Mara Laser secure their use in various fields:

  • Laser levelling machines for agriculture:
    Mara’s laser levellers, among the many plus secure a important increase of the arable land sections. 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 lowering in work times, 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 contained deflections (max 4 mm) and to remove cavities and gaps that would, afterwords, be filled with concrete. The lowering of work times and the possibility of obtaining an absolute perfect slope for water to flow down, are other plus that make these machines priceless and priceless in this fields.
  • Laser levelling machines for earth-moving:
    the fine performance of the Mara levellers enables to move large quantity of soil very quickly and with low power. In this way, shorter work times, lower costs and greater accuracy in creating the horizontal plan and gradient, 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 areas, repairing soil depressions without replacing the lawn.
  • Laser levelling machines for greenhouses:
    thanks to the accuracy, contained size and easy handling of Mara 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 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 minor costs and more convenient times. In addition, there are important plus, for example specialized labor is no longer necessary, besides to the fact that the use of fine materials is reduced.
