Leica PaveSmart 3D for Roadpavers

Leica Geosystems' 3D Machine Automation System for road pavers.

The modular design of the Leica Machine Guidance System - Road Paver (LMGS-P) combined with the MOBA-matic Automatic Leveling System permits optimal adjustments of the machines to various tasks.

With Leica Geosystems unique LMGS-P 3D control system, the machine is controlled without stringlines. Starting from the project data, the actual 3D prism position is measured by one Total station and transmitted to the Leica Machine Computer (MPC). High-accuracy machine-mounted slope sensors provide additional information on the long-slope and cross-slope. The results of this "design-vs-actual" comparison represent the amount of the elevation and slope correction required to keep the machine back on-grade within an accuracy of ±5mm. LMGS-P transmits corrections to the MOBA-matic machine controller(s) which regulates the hydraulics, in a similar way to controlling with the conventional sensors - meaning your crew doesn't need to be retrained to work with 3D.

The key components of the 3D system are:

• Industrial PC, touch-screen, USB Port and keyboard
• Application program "LMGS-P for Road Pavers and Profilers"
• Total station with TCPS27S radio data modem
• Dual-axis tilt sensor
• Required accessories such as prisms, masts, etc.
• MOBA-matic

New features of the LMGS-P Version 4.0

• Support for Leica TPS1200 Instruments with the onboard application M-Guide
• Leapfrog Assistant for easier Total station changeovers (switch between the prism from one Total station to another, continuous paving)
• Improved, interactive graphics
• Numerous user interface improvements
