Leica Geosystems is to unveil its newest advances in its construction positioning and machine control technology at the World of Concrete 2012 trade fair in the US this month, prior to rolling them out around the world.

The company is preparing to debut a new portfolio of ultra-high-specification positioning and measurement solutions for the construction industry at the event, which is taking place in Las Vegas on January 24-27.

Mike Reed, who heads up Leica's machine control division in North America, said that the highly-anticipated innovations are likely to mark a major shift in the way that construction trade tasks are performed. He said that the new tools on offer will allow for construction workflow efficiency to be made better than ever.

"This year's [World of Concrete] is especially exciting for Leica Geosystems because we're unveiling new solutions that will fundamentally impact the construction workflow for years to come," Reed explained. "We are talking about unprecedented new levels of versatility and profitability gains for construction contractors."

The trade show itself will welcome hundreds of the world's top construction technology companies to the Las Vegas Convention Centre. Attendees of the event will be able to get a first look at the latest innovations in machine control technology, laser-based solutions and the most advanced GPS-guided tools.
