Case Studies
Case Study: Laser Scanning & Pipe Tie-in Survey – Gas Processing Plant (Eastern States)
We performed a high-precision 3D laser scan and pipe tie-in survey around the Sour Rich MEG Tank B at a major gas processing facility. The resulting point cloud delivered accurate as-built data to support engineers in designing new pipework and structural modifications with confidence and efficiency.
Case Study: Gold Processing Plant Laser Scan – Mining WA
We conducted a detailed 3D laser scan of a Gold Processing Plant in Western Australia to support major piping and structural upgrades required to bring the site back online. The point cloud data enabled Promin Engineering to produce accurate design and fabrication drawings for efficient project execution.
Darwin LNG Facility – Digital Twin Virtual Tour
Viewtech3d transformed the Darwin LNG facility into an interactive Digital Twin, combining high-resolution 360° imagery with accurate point cloud laser scan data. This bespoke platform gives engineers and contractors instant access to every part of the site, complete with embedded documents, videos, and training tools. Teams in Perth and Darwin can now collaborate as if they were on-site, using real-world accurate data to design, review, and plan projects with confidence. The result is fewer costly site visits, safer operations, streamlined communication, and precise planning for future expansions.
Bring Your Factory Floor to Life in 3D.
Get a virtual experience tailored to your site’s needs, from walk-throughs to full digital twins.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 3D scanning for manufacturing?
3D scanning for manufacturing captures precise, as-built 3D data of your factory floor, machinery, and production lines. This data is used for factory layout planning, retrofit projects, clash detection, and creating digital records of your assets.
How is a digital twin used in a factory?
An industrial digital twin of a factory combines 3D scan data with maintenance records or live sensor data. It’s a 3D dashboard that helps plant managers monitor assets, plan maintenance, and simulate new production line layouts.
What is "Scan-to-CAD"?
Scan-to-CAD is the process of converting the “point cloud” (the raw scan data) into an intelligent as-built 3D model in software like AutoCAD or SolidWorks. It’s the most accurate way to get your existing facility and equipment into your design software for planning upgrades.
Can you 3D scan just one piece of machinery?
Yes. We provide high-resolution 3D scanning of individual pieces of equipment. This is often used for reverse engineering (to re-create parts), quality control (to check tolerances), or for designing new machine guarding and attachments.
