Rent the MDL Void Scanner (VS150) Mk3

A ruggedized, underground, 3D laser scanner used for routine 3D mapping of inaccessible stopes, voids and tunnels. The VS150 Mk3 can be deployed on a boom, tripod, Boretrak® rods or customised mount. These flexible deployments allow the collection of precisely referenced point clouds in complete safety. The new VS150 Mk3 model has an improved drive system and faster scan speed which significantly reduces survey times, saves costs, and improves safety for the operators.

The VS150 Mk3 is small, rugged, lightweight, and designed specifically for harsh underground environments.

Simple to use, the VS150 Mk3 scans 200 points per second and stores the data on rugged tablet PC or laptop computers.

The VS150 Mk3 comes complete with MDL’s Voidscan software which is used to control the unit and to display (in real-time) laser point clouds in 3D. Data may then be exported into any mine planning package.
