Leica LINO L2 - the Perfect Alignment ToolSimply Perfect Lines

(Norcross, 04. Nov. 2007) Leica Geosystems has been very successfully in laser measuring with the laser distance meter Leica DISTO™. We have now used our extensive experience to develop a line-laser that sets new standards. The usage of excellent optical components to proven Leica quality standards ensures precise laser lines that are extraordinarily easy to see. Its strengths: precise and perfectly visible laser lines.

Excellent visibility and precision
The quality of the optics in the device is important for the lines to be highly visible and sharp. The Leica LINO™ L2 is equipped with proven Leica Power Range TechnologyT to guarantee excellent visibility - even in a bright environment the lines are easy to see. And through the extremely large aperture angle of the optics the device projects amazingly long lines on to the wall, making it ideal for transferring reference points on to nearby walls or ceilings. With an accuracy of +/- .04" @ 16' the Leica LINO™ L2 is one of the most precise devices in its class .

LINO L2 Laser Distance Meter

Simple, quick and self-leveling
Even someone who has never worked with a level before can project exact horizontal and vertical lines on to a wall in next to no time. With the new Leica LINO™ these everyday alignment and positioning tasks are completed extremely quickly and precisely. No painstaking leveling of the device is required - it is self-leveling! And if the inclination of the supporting surface is too large then the Leica LINO™ L2 detects this for itself and does not project the line, thus saving you from error. The self-leveling feature can be switched off by locking the device. This not only protects the Leica LINO™ while it is being moved; it is also useful when projecting from unusual positions. Using the Leica LINO™ L2 to project over long distances is child's play thanks to the pulse function with its energy saving mode and detector (accessory).

Clever accessories
The LINO includes a magnetic multifunctional adapter, which allows it to be set up in a wide range of situations, and a target plate that is very useful when a projection surface is required in a unenclosed space. The ball and socket adapter allows projections from surfaces sloping at all angles. The original Leica LINO™ bag provides a practical and safe way to transport the device to and from site.
