Topcon GT-600

The Topcon GT-600 is the world’s smallest and lightest robotic total station. Powered by advanced UltraSonic motors, it provides a turning speed of 120° per second and smooth, accurate prism tracking. It is a one-person system built for demanding site layout, survey, and BIM workflows.

UltraTrac Intelligence: Enhanced sensor algorithms provide superior prism locking and faster re-acquisition if the line of sight is broken.
Rugged IP65 Protection: Fully dust-tight and resistant to water jets, ensuring stable performance in torrential rain and harsh site conditions.
Compact & Lightweight: At just 5.8kg, it is significantly smaller and lighter than previous models, making it ideal for all-day portability.
Advanced UltraSonic Motors: Powerful direct-drive technology delivers smooth, silent rotation at 120° per second for high-speed tracking.
LongLink Connectivity: Exclusive Bluetooth technology offers a 600m robotic range, allowing seamless communication between the station and the controller.

FAQs

What are the main differences between the GT-600 and the GT-500?

While both belong to the UltraSonic robotic family, the GT-600 features updated internal hardware and refined “UltraTrac” prism tracking algorithms. Users typically find the GT-600 provides a more stable lock in high-glare or obstructed environments compared to the older GT-500 and is optimised for faster data processing.

How does the GT-600 differ from the newer GT-700?

The GT-700 is the direct successor and introduces the “GT-700” architecture. The primary differences are rotation speed and motor control; the GT-700 offers a significantly faster turning speed of 200° per second compared to the 120° of the GT-600, with upgraded Brushless Direct Current motors for smoother operation.

What is the benefit of the UltraSonic Direct Drive motors?

The UltraSonic motors are gearless, which significantly reduces mechanical wear and tear. This design allows the GT-600 to be 30% smaller and lighter than previous robotic stations while providing much faster rotation speeds and higher reliability for long-term hire use.

Is the Topcon GT-600 suitable for one-person operation?

Yes, the GT-600 is a fully robotic system designed specifically for single-operator efficiency. When paired with a field controller and the RC-5 remote, a single engineer can perform all setting-out and layout tasks, eliminating the need for a second person at the instrument.

What is the prism tracking range of the GT-600?

The GT-600 features a tracking system capable of maintaining a prism lock up to 600m using LongLink Bluetooth technology. For standard measurements, it has a prism range of up to 4,500m and a reflectorless (non-prism) range of up to 800m.

Can I use the GT-600 for machine control?

Absolutely. The GT-600 is “LPS Ready” (Local Positioning System)

What are the differences between the TS20 A, P, and I hardware variants?

TS20 A (Aiming): Includes standard automatic target aiming (ATR) but does not include the long-range active laser sweep for quick target acquisition.TS20 P (PowerSearch): Adds the dedicated vertical laser sensor array for full, rapid 360° prism re-locking and PowerSearch capabilities.TS20 I (Imaging): Includes the PowerSearch array and features a completely redesigned, ultra-high-resolution 20-megapixel overview camera that supports tile-free panoramas and real-time live video steering on your field controller.
