GLS-1500 - 3D Laser Scanner

Topcon’s GLS-1500 laser scanner leaves nothing behind—except the competition. The operator-friendly design allows for quick and hassle-free setups which saves time and improves productivity. With batteries and data collector on-board, Topcon’s GLS-1500 is lightweight and cable-free. Transportation is a cinch. While other laser scanners take two people to unload, setup, operate, and load, the GLS-1500 is a one-man instrument.

Small size, big performance

This robust scanner sends out a laser beam that captures data at 30,000 points per second at a range of 500 ft. (150m) to a typical surface, and with an extended range to 1100 ft. (330m) for more reflective surfaces. Unique to Topcon’s GLS-1500 is the mechanical ability to select from multiple lens arrays to control the laser beam. This provides consistent 0.16 in. (4mm) accuracy throughout the range from 3 ft. to 500 ft. (1m to 150m).

Maximum Range at specified reflectivity 1100 ft. (330m) at 90%, 500 ft. (150m) at 18%
Calculated Range at 18% 500 ft. (150m)
Minimum Range 3.28 ft. (1m)
Single Point Accuracy Distance: 0.16 in. at 500 ft. (4mm at 150m)
Dual Axis Compensators Angle (vertical): 6” Accuracy, Angle (horizontal): 6” Accuracy
