HIGH QUALITY - HIGH ACCURACIES

The use of prisms (monitoring prism) is essential for tachymetric structural monitoring. In order to achieve the highest accuracy in visual and automatic targeting, the prism must be positioned in the center symmetrical point. In our catalogue you will find a large number of different systems for monitoring structures. They make it possible to observe a large number of measuring points at the object to be monitored economically and very precisely in line with the varying requirements.

So far, our building monitoring articles have been used for the monitoring of tunnels, historical buildings, dams, bridges as well as in mining. Practical problems and customer requests lead to a constantly expanding catalogue of accessories for monitoring equipment. We will be happy to help you choose the right products for your needs.

BALL PRISM MONITORING

Our most popular monitoring system is compact, affordable, of high quality and is very flexible.

The ball prism consists of a precisely manufactured steel ball with a glass triple prism mounted exactly in the centre of the ball. On the cylindrical ball base with cone-shaped upper part, the ball prism comes to rest in a forcibly centred position and can be aligned in all directions in a range of more than 180°.
The steel ball is held in place by a permanent magnet integrated in the base. An application on vertical walls and overhead is therefore possible. Depending on the application, the magnet is available with different adhesive forces. A non-magnetic version is also available.

Features of our monitoring system

  • Choice of ball diameter Ø 30 mm & 1.5″
  • Ball prisms with two prism constants available
  • Bases, balls and centering plates alternatively available in stainless steel
  • Bearing of the prism in the centre of the ball with an accuracy of ± 0.2 mm
  • Shock and water resistant
