Case Study: 3D Laser Scan Production Line Factory

Customer Overview

A scan was done for a massive hair care production facility .  

Location

Iowa City, IA

Project Duration

2 Days

Project Challenge

The customer needed updated drawings for an engineering project. The plant is extremely large and complex, but the 3D laser scanning process is able to tackle these difficult environments. The scanning needed to take place while the plant was in operation, which adds to the challenge. Laser scanners can utilized in a manner that causes no interruptions to the work activities at the plant. 

Reality Capture Solution

Tripod-based scanning was chosen due to the accuracy and versatility of the process. Tripods can be set up in tight spots to get maximum coverage of essential areas. Cloud-to-cloud registration minimizes setup time while still delivering the necessary accuracy. The data was aligned to customer-provided survey points.
