Mara - Niveladoras Laser

Used leveller blades for tractors

Mara Laser is a business activity that for over 30 years has been examining, making and trading laser and GPS controlled laser levelling machines, turning towards buyers in about 30 nations all over the world.
Thanks to GPS and laser control technologies, we can reach significant 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 capacity in more than one situations: from the machine functioning velocity, to a total affidability 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 unrivaled performance, mostly when they are combined.

Laser technology

Laser technology is applied to the levellers in a way that continually 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 placed on a tripod that observes the natural gradient of the land and communicates the signal to the receiver, which is instead mounted on the machine itself.
The laser beam, for its internal characteristics, permits very high preciseness even over long sections of land. After obtaining the signal, a technologically perfectioned rotating pentaprism, mounted on these machines, returns an ideal planning for the leveller to follow while functioning.
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 move on any kind of ground and receive the 360° signal, though it could be low or it is subjected to interference.
On the laser leveller, moreover, there is a control system to remove external interference. It decreases wind sound, automatically intercepts the signal and regulates the power of the tractor.

GPS receiver technology

GPS technology, however, is used to set the position of the laser 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 planning is represented 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 less accuracy than laser technology: GPS systems are subject to fluctuations for the periodic change of constellation of the satellites.
In any case, the less preciseness is compensated by the wide adaptability of use, mostly 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 made an integrated system that connects the precision of laser technology with the potential of GPS, proper 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 place of the leveller. Therefor, the Mara system can set the height of the tractor leveller and the place of the blade itself.
The creation of the 3D map of the land permits to highlight the land portions that has to be scraped, the loading areas, the section where to begin, and the best route that enables to do the greatest job possible, with both the tractor and the leveller in the right position.
Therefor, the operator will have immediate instructions through the constant updating of the data by the system.

Fields of application

The significant preciseness and adaptability of the levellers made by Mara Laser ensure their use in more than one fields:

  • Laser levelling machines for agriculture:
    Mara’s laser levellers, among the different plus ensure a key increase of the arable land portions. They enable a reduction in the amount of water used, an increased production, a less use of chemicals, 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 provides a 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 a perfect slope for water to flow down, are other plus that make these machines incomparable and priceless 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 attained.
  • Laser levelling machine for sportsground:
    this type of technology can be utilized 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 levelling machines, 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 secured.
  • Laser grader machines for roads:
    in this area, important results are attained 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 necessary, on top to the fact that the use of fine materials is reduced.
