Leica TS13 1" Robotic Total Station

Product Description

Data Sheet    Accessories Catalogue

The Leica TS13 Total Station is a scalable platform designed to grow with your projects—starting in two-person conventional mode and upgradeable over time into a robotic total station for one-person operation. It’s built for efficient field production with Leica Captivate and supports modern, data-centric workflows for field data collection, management, visualization, and import/export.

For construction and survey crews, the TS13 supports accurate and effective workflows for stakeout, construction measurements, design data layout, as-built checks, and BIM tasks, using automated routines suited for both two-person and one-person workflows.

Key Features

• Upgradeable platform (two-person → robotic): Start conventional and scale to one-person robotics as your work demands change.
• Leica Captivate field software: Data-centric workflows with powerful coding and linework routines for efficient collection and deliverables.
• AutoHeight included: Automatic instrument height measurement to speed setup and reduce setup mistakes (0.7–2.7 m range, 1.0 mm accuracy).
• ATR Automatic Aiming: Automated target aiming with long-range performance to keep crews productive.
• Jobsite-ready durability: IP55 protection and –20°C to +50°C operating range.

Applications

Ideal for crews needing reliable production on:

• Construction layout & stakeout (design data layout, point layout, verification)
• As-built checks & documentation
• BIM-related measurement tasks
• Mapping/topo workflows with efficient coding and linework routines

What’s Included (Typical Package — configure to your needs)

Because TS13 packages vary by configuration and upgrade level, PRISM GeoSystems can quote the exact build you want, commonly including:

• Leica TS13 instrument (configured for conventional or robotic use)
• Battery/charger and required cables
• Transport case
• Controller/communications options (as needed for robotic workflow)
• Prism/pole/tripod packages (optional add-ons)

(We’ll build the package around your workflow: conventional today, robotics tomorrow—without re-buying the wrong setup.)
