Laser rangefinders are useful in many areas of activity, because they allow you to measure distances precisely and quickly. What is worth knowing about this helpful device? What forest rangefinders can be recommended?
Laser rangefinder - what is it?
A laser rangefinder is an extremely precise measuring device, which is why it is useful wherever precise measurement results are needed, especially during construction, renovation and finishing works, but also in many other areas, such as energy, forestry, agriculture, hunting, sports, etc. It is invaluable in any task where maximum precision measurements of distances, angles or slopes are key.
Laser rangefinders are modern measuring instruments, definitely more innovative than optical and ultrasonic models. They are superior to them in terms of functionality and technological advancement. Thanks to this, they provide extremely precise measurements of +/- 1-5 mm/km. What's more, they can be operated by one person, and not, as in the case of optical rangefinders - at least two people. This not only speeds up and improves measurement work, but also simplifies matters related to staffing needs.
But that's not all, because laser distance meters offer much more. It's also worth mentioning that they are less susceptible to measurement errors, regardless of whether they are made by the operator (for example, incorrect leveling of the device) or result from other reasons. Especially since most laser distance meters are equipped with an auto-calibration function.

Laser rangefinders - how do they work?
The principle of operation is based on sending an electromagnetic pulse in the form of a laser beam through an optical-electronic system. It is reflected from the measured plane and then returns to the rangefinder. The beam is then processed and the measured distance is determined in this way. In phase laser rangefinders, the measurement is calculated based on the time it takes to travel a section in two planes (based on the measurement of the phase shift of the sent and returned EM wave).
There is also another way to do this, which concerns pulsed laser rangefinders. Here, the direct time that the pulse needs to travel between the rangefinder and the object and between the object and the rangefinder is determined. There are also laser rangefinders that perform interferometric distance measurements, which provides by far the most precise and fastest way to measure distance. The catch is that these types of laser rangefinders are quite expensive and quite delicate, which makes them easy to damage. This excludes them from field tests.
The best laser distance meters in the Onninen wholesaler - TOP 3
As you can see, laser distance meters are extremely useful, and sometimes even mandatory in many areas of activity. They allow you to take precise measurements, but for this to happen, we need to focus on choosing the right device. A wide range of different laser distance meters can be found in the Onninen installation wholesaler . Let's get to know interesting proposals from the available offer!
LD220 Stabila rangefinder
The Stabila LD 220 is a compact, easy-to-use rangefinder that has four basic measurement functions. It can measure distances up to 30 meters, so it is useful in many applications, both amateur and professional. Its great advantage is that it is easy to use. Just like other models available in the Onninen wholesaler.
LD250 Stabila rangefinder
Another good example is the Stabila LD250 rangefinder , designed for measuring distances of up to 50 meters. This is the perfect laser rangefinder for tasks that often require documenting measurements indoors. Thanks to the integrated Bluetooth Smart 4.0 radio technology, we can easily and completely wirelessly transfer measurement data to a smartphone or tablet.
Fluke 424D Laser Distance Meter
For really long distances, we recommend the Fluke 424D Laser Distance Meter , which allows you to measure distances up to 100 meters, regardless of whether you are talking about indoors or outdoors. Easy to use, durable and reliable. Functional, equipped with a large LCD screen and buttons that allow you to measure with one hand.
