Motorised and Robotic Total Stations for Surveyors
When earning your bread as a Surveyor, this
is the greatest thing since sliced bread - by
miles !

GYRO X
Automated Gyro Station
N E W
Sokkia's newest, motorised, gyro
station is available in GYRO1X, GYRO2X, GYRO3X
models
- Gets True North with 15"accuracy
within 20 minutes
- Simple automated process allows
novice users to give consistent,
accurate results
- No need for backsight
- Ideal for mining, tunnelling or
within enclosed buildings
- Instrument can also be used as a
standard auto-pointing survey
instrument.

SRXX series The SRX series have been renewed !
The new series is
called
SRXX.
SRX1X, SRX2X, SRX3X and the 5" SRX5X.
- New motors
with higher speed and reliability
- Improved tracking
- Larger
on-board memory
- Bigger screen
- Stunning 1.5mm accuracy to 360 degree prism.
- The EDM has again been beefed up : the SRXX
feature the Redtech800 technology which measures
up to 1,000 meters reflectorless.

SRX series
(superceded 12/2010) Sokkia's
SRX
Total Station is available in 'Motorised'
as well as 'fully Robotic'
configurations. Click for
definitions.
The SRX is available in 1", 2", 3" and 5" angular
accuracy models - but there's so much to tell on
this machine:
- Entirely new designed instrument
Incorporates Auto Tracking functionality as
well as a host of new or improved
technologies. runs on Windows CE, backlit
keyboard, USB and CF ports, conventional
serial port too, a balanced read key, crisp
colour touchscreen
- Completely cable-free, integrated Remote
Control
- New 'RED-tech EX' EDM:
incredibly, yet again
improved distance measurement : better
range, up to 500 meter, better accuracy,
even on short distances and adaptable beam diameter:
the narrowest beam when you need it, not the
narrowest beam when you don't!
- New IACS encoder system in the 1"and
2"models makes very high
angular accuracy more reliable than ever before.
- On-demand Remote Control System for
finding the correct prism - fast!
Picks up the prism rather than the traffic
reflector you're standing next to... And it
knows which way is the short way to turn
when you've been out of sight.
- Use with Sokkia's standard AP01 prism,
sheet targets or the Sokkia
ATP1 360° prism.
Yes- finally a 360° prism that is
accurate!

Definitions
Robotic Total Stations can not only improve your
productivity dramatically, but they can
also reduce the operator cost significantly when
used as a one-man system.
- Motorised means that the
instrument can turn using its own motors
rather than being turned by an operator.
- Target Recognition takes the
operator's strain out of pointing the
instrument exactly towards the target: just
point the instrument in the general
direction of the prism and the Automatic
Target Recognition (ATR) will sight the
target accurately and take the shot.
- Auto Tracking means that the
instrument will automatically and
continuously follow a prism as it moves - a
must for stake-out
- Remotocatcher is Sokkia's name
for a clever device at the prism side for
finding the right target quickly and
securely
A 'Motorised' Total Station typically
includes both the motorised and the target
recognition functionality.
A 'full Robotic Total Station'
includes all of the above features, plus radio
communication and a controller (data-logger) to
run the system from the prism end.
