Lasers for Farming — Land. Channel. Fence.
Three product groups for one trade. Rotating grade lasers for land-levelling, irrigation channels and dam grade. Laser automation systems for blade-driven trim work. Fencing kits for solo post alignment over hills and gullies. Built for paddock-scale work.
Three product groups for the farm
Pick by the work in front of you. Most farms run a grade laser plus one of the others — the laser sets the reference, the rest is how the work gets done.
Grade Laser
The reference plane on a tripod. Sets datum and slope across paddock-scale distances. Read with a millimetre receiver on a staff for setting out, checking RL, marking dam batters, channel grades.
Laser Automation
The receiver bolts onto the blade hydraulics through a control box. Operator sets the cut, the system drives the blade to the laser plane automatically. Trim quality on every pass for finished pads and channels.
Fencing Kit
Different beast — a vertical-alignment laser with a 9× scope and Auto-Align. Lines up fence posts solo over hills and gullies, with the same laser that does horizontal work the rest of the year.
Rotating grade lasers
Three rotating grade lasers suited to farm work — Class 2 to Class 3 red-beam, all IP66 rated for paddock conditions. The DGL1010GM covers up to 500 m radius from one set-up, perfect for big paddock layouts and channel runs.
Laser automation systems
Single-ram (MCR900) for skid-steer blades and land planes; dual-ram (MCR910) for blades with two independent rams. Pair with one of the grade lasers above and the receiver drives the blade hydraulics to match the laser plane automatically.
Custom installs are common — we tailor systems for tractors, skid-steers, posi-tracks, loaders and land planes. See the full Machine Automation page for setup detail and FAQs.
Fencing laser kit
Solo fence post alignment over hills and gullies. Standard kit built around the EGL624GM rotating laser, plus the FVAK64 fencing add-on (9× variable zoom scope, fencing receiver, mount plate). Doubles as a horizontal site laser the rest of the year.
For the full fencing range, including the Premium DGL1010GM-based kit and the FVAK64 add-on for laser owners, see the Fencing Lasers page.
Farming jobs a laser pays for itself on
Where a laser earns its keep on farm work — paddock-scale jobs that would otherwise eat days with a tape, a string line, or a dumpy.
Land-levelling for irrigation
Run flood-irrigation grade across a paddock with a laser plane and an automated land plane. Even slope, no high spots, no ponds where the water shouldn’t sit.
Channel grade
Set the laser to a known fall (1-in-1000, 1-in-2000, whatever the design calls for) and run the channel to grade for the entire length. Single laser set-up, hundreds of metres covered.
Dam construction & batter
Set wall height and batter slope, hold the dam floor to design RL with the laser plane. Receiver on the staff confirms grade at every point in the cut.
Solo fence-post alignment
Vertical-alignment fencing kit lines up posts over hills and gullies, solo. 350-500 m of fenceline from one set-up, no second person, no drift through the run.
Animal-shed slab grade
Fall on a shed slab so it sheds water and is easy to wash down. Single grade laser sets a one-direction fall; dual grade for compound falls in larger sheds.
Contour banks & grade banks
Set out contour banks for soil-conservation work. Laser holds level around the contour while you peg, no string-and-bubble back-and-forth.
The RedBack difference
Anyone can sell a laser. Few back it properly.
Specialist range, not filler
We sell laser levels and measurement tools — that’s it. Every laser on this page is one we’ve used and chosen because it works for farmers, not because it fills a catalogue page.
Built to last, built to be repaired
Solid construction, built for the long term. RedBack provides in-house repair and calibration services for all RedBack lasers and most other laser brands.
Real support, real people
Call us and you’ll speak to someone who knows the products. No scripts, no call centre, no runaround — just straight answers from people who’ve worked with these tools for 25 years.
Accessories for farm work
Tripods and staffs for setting up the rotating laser, plus a hand-held mm receiver for ground checks and machine receivers if you’re running blade-mounted gear.
