Accurate As-Builts | Process Piping Models | Zero Downtime

Factory 3D Scanning Services for Engineering, Design, and Maintenance

Arrival 3D offers expert 3D laser scanning services for factories and industrial facilities across the U.S. Using advanced LiDAR technology, we deliver high-resolution point clouds, CAD models, and BIM deliverables to support renovation, expansion, and maintenance planning and equipment installation planning.

Whether you’re modernizing process piping, adding equipment, or planning facility upgrades, we help you eliminate guesswork, reduce downtime, and avoid costly errors.

Why Use 3D Laser Scanning for Process Piping?

If your role involves producing as-built CAD models of complex industrial environments, 3D scanning is a game-changer. Our technology allows you to:

Capture hundreds of pipe segments in minutes
Scan safely and accurately using tripod-mounted scanners
Achieve extended reach—up to 1,000 feet
Work in indoor or outdoor environments
Operate safely around people without disrupting workflows
Perform scans with zero interruption to operations

Walk the site virtually using a color point cloud

Process

Point Clouds - useful in themselves

New software tools allow you to utilize point clouds directly and easily. Point clouds are the raw data that is collected from the scanner. In the past, expensive and/or cumbersome software was needed to work with point clouds. But now, there are many things you can do with just the raw scan data, making 3D scanning an incredible value. These things include:

View the scans as full-color panoramic images
Take measurements
Create ortho-images
Create color images and fly-through videos
Perform clash detection
Walk through the site virtually

Process

High detail, broad coverage, or all three - it's your choice

Every scan has a plan that is unique to your project. If you are interested in seeing every 1″ conduit that is inside a building, the scan plan will involve closely-spaced scans and more of them in order to capture all of the conduit from every angle. If your area of interest is much larger, such as capturing 12″ piping runs across the property of your facility, the scans will be spaced much farther apart. In either case, we make the best and most efficient use of the on-site scanning time so as to accomplish your needs with minimum cost.

Testimonials

What our customers saying

“My company has used Arrival on several occasions. Arrival came to our remote job site a couple times, bringing their equipment with them. I am enthusiastic about their capabilities and service.”

"I called Arrival 3D while working a unique project. They were very professional and knowledgeable. My contact was very thorough and patient with me in explaining the process. Their services were the first step of a very important project and they made me look good. I highly recommend this company."

“I have used Arrival 3D for many projects over the last several years. A great group to work with. I can always count on them to get the work completed on time and on budget.”

“I had Arrival 3D laser scan two properties that are going into the architectural design phase. They produced LOD 300 models for both project that were excellent. Scheduling was easy and the 3 week turnaround was fast. I look forward to using them on many more development projects.”

"Lanny and his team responded quickly and efficient to our request. They were on-time, clearly communicated with us whenever we had questions and ultimately delivered a great product. We really appreciate their effort and look forward to working with them in the future."

"Working with Lanny @ Arrival 3D was a great experience. He was extremely friendly and very responsive. The turn around time on his work was fantastic. In terms of pricing for the work, I would say that it was extremely reasonable, and the results were amazing. I did my research, and out of all the companies I researched Arrival offered the best services for the price."
