The Laser Measure GLM 50 C Professional is the smart solution for measuring and documenting. Thanks to Bluetooth® connectivity, measurements are conveniently transferred to the Bosch MeasureOn App for smart documentation. It also features a broad range of measuring functions, including a stake-out function and a 360° tilt sensor for easy angle measurements and levelling applications. The tool's simple user interface and illuminated rotating colour display provide easy handling and good readability during use. Equipment & Application If you’ve selected the area function, the pointer will come on again after the first measurement and you’ll line up the second then push the button and the two measurements will be displayed along with the calculated area. The PLR 50 C is really easy to use, it has a single button to turn on and off as well as take measurements. All other settings and mode changes are done through the colour touch screen display.

The angle measurement interface is also really simple with a display indicting the angle and a beeping tone when the device is perfectly horizontal or vertical. The volume measurement works in a similar manner but with once extra button push for the third distance measurement. Angle Measurement And Levelling Functions The Bosch range of laser measurement devices can be bought at most major hardware outlets, they’re also widely available online.Developed for tradesmen such as painters, electricians, carpenters, tilers, dry wallers, floorers, plumbers, architects, and construction managers as well as DIYers. The price is a little high but it really is worth it to get the app interface, you definitely won’t be disappointed. If you feel like you can do without the app then go for the basic version and you’ll save quite a bit of money. USE THE NEW INFINITE WORKSPACE: Start your project, sketch floor plans as individual rooms within the flexible workspace, and add photos and notes according to your individual needs. The measurement type selection lets you choose between length, continuous length (giving you maximum and minimum), area, volume, angle, level and then three forms of indirect measurement which use trigonometry to calculate heights or distances based on two distance measurements and the angle of the device. Perhaps one of the most powerful features of the Bosch PLR 50 C is the app interface. The app is a very well thought out tool which enables you to take photos of your work, organised into projects or locations, and then automatically transfer measurements from the device via bluetooth and overlay them onto the photos.

The device is very accurate. I compared the results to a number of physical measurements and they were always spot on.Another useful feature is the inclusion of an inclinometer which lets you measure angles or alignment.
