Industrial Plant Design and Operation
Preliminary investigation and inspection are an indispensable process for factory renovation or relocation of factory equipment. Laser scanning quickly measures and collects precise 3D point clouds without interrupting factory operation. High-density 3D point clouds can be widely utilized for generating schematics and simulation of piping or equipment installation.
The Applications with 3D model are endless. It helps you with product development, marketing, saving you time and cost down the line. In the industry, as facilities age and the needs of a company changes rapidly, there is always need to make changes and updates. A 3D model makes sure the facilities still satisfy the needs and helps to run project smoother. 3D scanning solutions allow project teams to:
Reduce time and errors by:
- reducing the number and types of consequences from manual measurement errors, damages, injuries and outages
- reducing time onsite for inspection
- providing advanced interference and clash detection for new installations without the need for return site trips
- executing construction activities with fewer mismatches and design errors
- coordinating efficient scaffolding in complex plant environments during shutdowns
- responding to schedule upsets and changed field conditions with more flexibility.
Improve work processes by:
- providing consistent as-built documentation for CAD/design specifications for plant layout.
- updating documentation in piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs).
- evaluating pipe runs for various regulatory compliance requirements.
- providing exact measurements for demolition and removal of plant components in existing facilities.
- prefabricating components with little to no excess material or incomplete welds.
- visualizing construction plans prior to execution.
- visualizing as-is conditions for asset management, inspection, constructability and funding procurement efforts.
- accelerating construction, decommissioning and modification processes.
- accommodating scope changes more intelligently.
- Operator training, a company can create a virtual model of the entire plant to train employees, using the data the scans generate
