We're Revolutionising Construction

Lowcock Builders, a fourth-generation family-owned construction business based in Bowen, Queensland, has revolutionised its commercial builds by adopting Topcon’s surveying and machine control technology. The use of Topcon’s LN-150 robotic total station and FC-6000 field controller with MAGNET Field software has significantly enhanced operational efficiency and ensured survey-grade accuracy. The incorporation of Topcon’s MC-Mobile system has extended their capabilities to machine control, enabling millimetre-accurate earthworks and providing unparalleled control and accuracy in construction operations.

The team at Lowcock Builders has embraced this technology, utilising it for all aspects of their projects, thereby minimising rework and delays. The transition to this technology has been smooth, thanks to the support and training provided by Aptella, Topcon’s Australian distributor. The Tokara platform has been instrumental in providing quick and efficient support. In conclusion, Lowcock Builders’ adoption of Topcon’s technology has set a new standard for precision and efficiency in the industry, empowering them to achieve accuracy from the outset and setting a benchmark for excellence in construction.
