Innovation And Advantages of Magnetic Prism Balls

The innovative design of the strong magnetic base and quick connection interface demonstrates significant advantages in terms of work efficiency, safety and adaptability.

1. Extremely fast deployment and handling efficiency

In scenarios where a large number of points need to be continuously collected (such as topographic surveying, road surveying, and engineering quantity calculation), traditional 

prisms require frequent setup, centering, and leveling of tripods, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Magnetic prism balls can be directly adhered to the surface of any 

ferromagnetic metal (such as steel columns, Bridges, mechanical equipment, vehicles), and the deployment can be completed almost instantly.

The surveyor can move the prism ball from one point to the next as quickly as using a "tile", greatly reducing non-measurement time and increasing work efficiency several times 

over.

2. Outstanding security

In dangerous or hard-to-stand environments, such as steel structure buildings, the outside of Bridges, heavy machinery equipment, railway tracks, and pipelines, traditional tripods 

may be unstable or unable to be set up. The strong magnetic base can provide very reliable fixation, preventing instrument damage and data loss caused by accidentally knocking 

over the tripod.

The surveyor no longer needs to painstakingly set up a tripod at a high altitude or in an unstable position. They only need to attach the prism ball to a reliable position with one 

hand, reducing the risk of personal safety.

3. Unparalleled adaptability to different locations

It can be easily installed at locations that are difficult or impossible to set up by traditional methods, such as vertical steel columns, steel frames on ceilings, curved metal pipes, 

running mechanical equipment, and vehicle bodies.

In industrial plants and steel structure construction sites, temporary control points can be quickly set up on existing steel structures, facilitating subsequent construction layout or 

deformation monitoring.

4. Ensure alignment accuracy

Eliminating centering error: In traditional measurement, the "centering" error of instruments is one of the main sources of error. The magnetic prism ball is precisely processed to 

ensure that its center (reflection center) has a fixed geometric relationship with the center of the magnetic base. Once adsorbed onto the preset metal marker points, the "alignment" is automatically completed, completely eliminating the error of human alignment.

Accuracy consistency: As long as the metal surface is flat, each adsorption can ensure extremely high repeat positioning accuracy, which is crucial for the same point that needs to 

be observed multiple times (such as deformation monitoring).

5. Flexibility and multi-functionality

Magnetic prism balls can be easily integrated into other mobile mapping platforms. For instance, POS systems that can be attached to the metal casing of unmanned ships for 

underwater topographic surveying or to vehicle-mounted platforms for mobile scanning to assist in positioning.

There is no need to retract the tripod. The surveyor can carry multiple magnetic prism balls with him, making movement more convenient.

Application scenarios

1. Steel structure building installation and monitoring: In the construction of steel structures in stadiums, airports, and high-rise buildings, rapid layout and installation accuracy 

detection are carried out.

2. Industrial surveying: In chemical plants, shipyards, and mechanical manufacturing workshops, topography measurements are conducted on large equipment, pipelines, and tanks.

3. Bridge Inspection: Quickly set up observation points on bridge piers, steel cables and beam bodies to conduct deformation monitoring.

4. Topographic surveying assistance: In areas densely populated with metal facilities (such as substations and communication base stations), quickly collect the coordinates of the 

facilities.

Conclusion

Magnetic prism balls are powerful supplementary tools to traditional prisms, specifically designed to solve measurement problems in specific scenarios. Its advantages in terms of 

efficiency, safety and accuracy make it have great application potential and value in modern and fast-paced industrial measurement and special engineering measurement.
