Factory 3D Scanning

Capture your industrial process piping and equipment in digital 3D

Our Factory 3D Scanning Services provide highly accurate digital documentation of manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and production plants. We use advanced LiDAR and 3D laser scanning technology. This helps us capture every detail of structures, machines, and buildings with great accuracy. It is perfect for renovations, retrofits, space planning, and managing assets.

Why 3D Scan Your Factory?

Traditional factory measurement methods are slow and often inaccurate. 3D laser scanning offers a smarter, faster alternative with major benefits:

Minimal Downtime – Scans can be completed without interrupting daily operations

High Accuracy – Capture true as-built conditions to within ±2mm

Speed & Efficiency – Reduce rework and project delays with reliable data

Full Facility Coverage – Even tight or obstructed areas are captured

    Factory 3D Scanning Workflow

    1. Project Review – Define goals, deliverables, and factory access requirements.

    2. Laser Scanning – Capture millions of data points using terrestrial LiDAR scanners.

    3. Point Cloud Processing – Clean, register, and align scan data.

    4. Modeling & Drawing Production – Generate 2D CAD drawings, 3D models, or BIM files.

    5. Quality Control & Delivery – Final deliverables are checked and submitted in preferred formats.

    Precision 3D Scanning for Process Factory Piping

    Every scan is tailored to your project’s unique needs. If you need to see every 1″ conduit inside a building, we take many scans from different angles. This way, we make sure to cover everything. For larger areas, like 12″ process piping in a facility, we space scans farther apart. This way, we still capture all important shapes. In both cases, we aim to gather the most complete data. We want to do this with the least disruption and cost to your operations.

    If your job involves creating as-built CAD or BIM models of process piping, 3D scanning can transform how you work. Key benefits include:

    • Capture Hundreds of Pipe Segments – A single scan captures extensive piping systems in minutes.
    • Scan from Anywhere – Use tripod-mounted scanners to reach tight or hard-to-access areas
    • Extended Range – Reach distances up to 1000 ft for large-scale environments
    • Indoor or Outdoor – Suitable for both plant interiors and exterior piping
    • Safe & Non-Intrusive – Scanning is safe around personnel and does not interfere with operations
    • Zero Downtime – Capture data without pausing production
    • Facility Renovation & Expansion
    • Factory Layout Redesign
    • Equipment Relocation & Installation
    • Space Optimization & Inventory Planning
    • As-Built Documentation & Verification
    • Digital Twin Creation
    • Prefabrication & Clash Detection
    • Safety Planning & Emergency Mapping
