Leica iCON trades: The Solution to Layout Structures

Transform digital wall layout into reality

Leica iCON trades is the ideal first step into the world of digital layout processes. It allows you to immediately convert any wall layout plans, no matter what file format they are, into reality. Simply set up Leica iCON iCS20/iCS50 and start the software. The set-up process is simplified by automation. You can start to layout points right away without any assistant. This reduces the layout effort and keeps the risk of mistakes to a minimum, while increasing accuracy and efficiency.

 

Today’s Challenges

Today, time pressure and staff shortages require more efficient layout methods. However even with good surveying equipment, it is difficult to ensure an accurate line of sight between device and target (layout point) on busy construction sites with high levels of incoming traffic.

It is much easier with Leica iCON trades.


Optimise Your Layout Process through Digital Workflows


Efficient Data Preparation

Save the time-consuming data preparation in the office with a special office software. Simply import the data which you receive from the architecture, planning or surveying office into the Leica iCON trades software. All common file types will be accepted: PDF, CSV, TXT, DXF, DWG and IFC.

Yes, it’s that simple.

Office to Field with Flexible Data Access

You can access the data either via USB, e-mail or common construction cloud services such as Bricsys 24/7, Autodesk Construction Cloud, Procore, Bluebeam, Allplan BIMPLUS, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive. Thus, always having the most recent data at hand enables you to react quickly to last-minute change requests with minimal time-efforts.

Yes, it’s that simple.

Comfortable and Intuitive Set-Up Process

You can carry all the equipment to the construction site in one go as it is very compact. Thanks to the "quick-mount" tripod, automated set-up process and intuitive operation, it is immediately ready for use and the risk of inaccuracies or even errors is reduced to a minimum.

Yes, it’s that simple.

Fast and Accurate Layout

Now you can layout the points. Depending on the application, decide whether you want to work only with the laser or with the Leica vPole. The Leica vPole always stays reliably connected to the device, thanks to the visual connection that is not interrupted by reflections. In addition, you no longer need to hold the tilted Leica vPole exactly plumb, which saves a lot of time and increases accuracy.

Yes, it’s that simple.

Easy Relocation

With the visually based and automated relocation process, you can quickly and easily relocate the Leica iCON iCS20/iCS50. After relocation, it automatically finds and measures the vTargets and you can continue your layout process straight away. Use this benefit to work in a closer range to the device thus reducing line of sight issues. This increases the efficiency of your layout process.

Yes, it’s that simple.
