Leica iCON trades: The Solution for MEP Layout
Mark wall penetrations and hanger locations for pipes and duct work quickly, easily and without an assistant
Leica iCON trades is the ideal first step into the world of digital layout processes. It allows you to immediately convert any MEP plans, no matter what file format they are, into reality. Simply set up Leica iCON iCS20/iCS50 and start the software. The set-up process is simplified by automation. You can start to mark wall penetrations and hanger locations for pipes and duct work right away and without any assistant. This reduces the layout effort and keeps the risk of mistakes to a minimum, while increasing accuracy and efficiency.
Today’s Challenges
Due to the increasing desire for comfort and safety, MEP installations are becoming more and more complex. Time pressure, staff shortages and last-minute changes, make the situation even more complicated. Conventional layout methods with tape measures and chalk lines are not only inefficient but also uncomfortable when working on ceilings, for example. It is much easier with Leica iCON trades.
Optimise Your Layout Process through Digital Workflows
Efficient Data Preparation
Save the time-consuming data preparation in the office with a special office software. Simply import the data which you receive from the architecture, planning or surveying office into the Leica iCON trades software. All common file types will be accepted: PDF, CSV, TXT, DXF, DWG and IFC.
Yes, it’s that simple.
Office to Field with Flexible Data Access
You can access the data either via USB, e-mail or common construction cloud services such as Bricsys 24/7, Autodesk Construction Cloud, Procore, Bluebeam, Allplan BIMPLUS, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive. Thus, always having the most recent data at hand enables you to react quickly to last-minute change requests with minimal time-efforts.

Comfortable and Intuitive Set-Up Process
You can carry all the equipment to the construction site in one go as it is very compact. Thanks to the "quick-mount" tripod, automated set-up process and intuitive operation, it is immediately ready for use and the risk of inaccuracies or even errors is reduced to a minimum.
Yes, it’s that simple.
Fast and Accurate Layout
Now you can layout the points. Depending on the application, decide whether you want to work only with the laser or with the Leica vPole. The Leica vPole always stays reliably connected to the device, thanks to the visual connection that is not interrupted by reflections. In addition, you no longer need to hold the tilted Leica vPole exactly plumb, which saves a lot of time and increases accuracy.
Yes, it’s that simple.
Easy Relocation
With the visually based and automated relocation process, you can quickly and easily relocate the Leica iCON iCS20/iCS50. After relocating, it automatically finds and measures the vTargets and you can continue your layout process straight away. Always move the device close to your working area to ensure the laser dot is as small as possible. This increases the accuracy of your layout points.
Yes, it’s that simple.
