Trimble S6 DR Plus 5" Robotic Total Station, MT1000 Active 360° Prism
S6 is equiped with Trimble's MagDrive servo technology silently spins the instrument
through 180 degree in three seconds, while still providing ultra-fine control
for precise pointing.
The Trimble S6 offers SurePoint technology. SurePoint guards against the
sinkage, vibration, and handling that can affect an instrument after
setup. Its automatic pointing correction monitors and corrects the
effects of tilt axis and collimation, so you can measure with speed and
confidence.
Direct Reflex (DR) technology from Trimble enables mearsurement without a prism
even to extreme distances.
In Face 1 or Face 2, whether aiming manually or with the tracker, the Trimble
S6 lets you measure exactly what you see. The Trimble S6 optics by Carl
Zeiss are fully coaxial for full measurement confidence.
Choose from active or passive tracking via the Trimble MultiTrack target.
Active tracking ensures the you always locate and lock on to correct
target. Active tracking also offers longer range, and the 360 degree
active LED rings ensure accurate target tracking from any angle.
The Li-Ion internal smart battery provides six hours operating time in Robotic
mode. The smart battery also displays accurate battery discharge
information.
The S6 experienced a couple of
upgrades around 2010, including DR Plus EDM technology and optional VISION
(digital camera). DR Plus replaced DR300+ and offers extended
prism-less measurement range and faster measurement times (from 3-15
seconds down to under 5 seconds.) Trimble officially stopped production of the
S6 in 2015, replacing it with: S5 and S7.
