Trimble S5 DR Plus Robotic Total Station
The Trimble S5 DR Plus is a proven economical robotic total station for surveyors and contractors who want advanced automation without stepping up to a top tier instrument. With DR Plus EDM it measures farther with fewer setups and its robotic operation lets a single person run layout and survey work from the pole.
Key Features
- Robotic operation: control the instrument remotely and work solo with Active Tracking available to keep lock on a moving prism and cut reacquisition time
- DR Plus EDM: reliable prism and reflectorless measurement over longer distances reducing instrument setups and improving scanning performance
- AutoLock: fast prism acquisition and tracking
- MagDrive servo technology: smooth, silent, electro magnetic drive with fewer moving parts and minimal maintenance
- SurePoint accuracy assurance: actively corrects for wind, handling, and tripod settling so pointing stays accurate
- Choice of angular accuracy: 1″, 2″, 3″, or 5″ models to match your project needs
- Distance range: on the 1″ model, 0.2 m to 2,500 m
- Field-to-office support: Trimble L2P and InSphere Equipment Manager are included as standard
- Upgradable: an AutoLock S5 can be upgraded to robotic and Active Tracking later as your business grows
Typical Applications
- Construction layout and staking
- Topographic and control surveys
- Site preparation and as built verification
- Contractors adopting robotic survey workflows
- High precision layout and engineering tasks on 1″ models
Why Choose It
The Trimble S5 DR Plus offers a strong balance of automation, durability, and value. Robotic control, long range reflectorless measurement and accurate pointing in tough conditions help you finish jobs faster with fewer people and a choice of accuracy classes lets you buy only the precision you need.
