The GYROMAT 6000 is the most accurate surveying gyroscope in the world as it reliably points north and compensates for potential sources of error like refraction, error propagation or even plumb line errors when determining direction from a shaft and delivering measurement results with an accuracy of 0.8/1000th of a gon. Dr. Jörg Niese, product manager at DMT and in charge of the GYROMAT series, explains how accurately the GYROMAT 6000 measures with the following example: “If you were to cut a cake into 400 pieces and then cut one of these little pieces of cake into 1,000 even smaller pieces, then you would have an idea of the accuracy involved. And the beauty of the GYROMAT 6000 is that you can use it for measurements anywhere: in a tunnel, in a ship’s hull or in an industrial hall.” This is possible because the GYROMAT 6000 can operate where GPS signals are unavailable and it now comes with the ability to separate the gyroscope module from the total station which makes it easy to transport it into the smallest spaces like microtunnels or through shiphatches. With fully automated measurement sequences, pre-orientation-free measurement procedures and advanced monitoring functions the GYROMAT 6000 stands as a proof of precision and adaptability that is applicable in tunnel construction, shipbuilding, aerospace, and industrial surveying.
