The Lixel L3 is not in the hire fleet for now — the roadshow and private demos are how you get hands on it, while the K2 and L2 Pro stay available to hire.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who has the largest XGRIDS hire fleet in Australia?
AECT Solutions — XGRIDS' National Distributor for Australia. We run the country's largest XGRIDS hire and demonstration fleet across the Lixel K2, K1, L2 Pro and PortalCam, and stock every XGRIDS scanner, software licence and accessory onshore rather than ordering in per job. Units dispatch Australia-wide from our Sunshine Coast base.
Can I book XGRIDS equipment hire online?
Yes. Pick the unit and your dates on the booking calendar on this page, see the itemised estimate instantly (Demo-to-Buy or standard rate, accessories, purchase credit), and submit the request. We confirm availability and email the hire agreement within one business day — no payment is taken online.
What does XGRIDS hire cost in Australia?
Demo-to-Buy rates (first hire, up to 5 days, 100% credited on purchase within 90 days): PortalCam $150/day, Lixel K1 $200/day, Lixel K2 $250/day, L2 Pro 32-ch/120m $450/day. Standard dry hire: $300 / $350 / $400 / $800 per day respectively, with weekly = 4× daily. All inc GST; software licence, onboarding and support included; freight both ways payable by the hirer.
Is the L2 Pro 32-channel / 300m available for hire?
Not as dry hire — the 300m-range L2 Pro is our top-of-line unit and is demonstrated in person. Book an in-person demo from the calendar and Jacob brings the unit to your site (handheld, vehicle-mounted or on the drone). The guided demo is free; a paid on-site demo day is 100% creditable on purchase.
Do you stock XGRIDS accessories and software in Australia?
Yes — RTK kits, extension poles, harnesses, vehicle and drone mounts, batteries, chargers and GCP plates are held in stock onshore, as are LixelStudio, LCC Studio and LCC Cloud licences. Accessories can be added to any hire by the day, and everything is available to purchase without offshore lead times.
Can AECT process the data after my hire?
Yes. Our managed processing service turns your capture into a photoreal 3DGS model, a survey-ready point cloud, or both from the same walk — processed 100% onshore. Tick "process the capture afterwards" on the booking form, or price it on the processing estimator, and we'll include a processing quote with your hire agreement.
