Project Details:

Business Needs:

• 3D laser scanning of the existing plant to expansion and modification of Plant.
• 3D Scanned data further used to create as built drawings
• Accurate documentation and visualization
• To plan and design, expansions, or modifications in the process

Challenges:

• Managing and coordinating the scanning process for such a large area could be challenging and accurate scanning and proper registration of 565 scans can be technically demanding
• Processing and cleaning the large volume of scan data to prepare it for modelling can be time-consuming.
• Modeling pipes and piping accessories accurately based on scanned data requires expertise in CAD software (such as Revit or AutoCAD). accurately represent pipe diameters, fittings, Flange, valves, and other accessories.
• Exporting ISO drawings, Spool Drawing from the 3D model involves translating the digital model into detailed engineering drawings
• Effective communication and coordination with various stakeholders (engineers, designers, project managers) throughout the scanning, modelling, and drawing production phases are essential.
• Managing the project timeline to meet deadlines while ensuring quality standards can be demanding

Our Solutions & Approach:

• Create a detailed scanning plan with clear milestones and objectives for each section. Allocate sufficient time and resources for each phase of scanning to ensure thorough coverage.
• Utilize high-precision 3D laser scanners capable of capturing detailed data with minimal error. Implement stringent quality control measures during scanning to ensure each scan is accurately registered and aligned.
• Engage experienced CAD modelers proficient in software like Revit or AutoCAD. Ensure they have a comprehensive understanding of piping systems and engineering standards.
• Utilize software tools that support ISO drawing generation from 3D models. Ensure all required details, including dimensions, annotations, symbols, and material specifications, are accurately represented.
• Implement rigorous quality assurance protocols, including clash detection and dimensional checks, throughout the modeling and drawing production phases.
• Develop a detailed project schedule with realistic milestones and deadlines. Allocate resources effectively to meet project timelines without compromising quality.

Business Impact:

• Successfully implementing 3D laser scanning, modeling, and ISO drawing generation for the Demineralization Plant retrofit project includes enhanced operational efficiency, reduced construction costs through minimized rework, and improved facility management.
• The ability to visualize and manage plant infrastructure effectively supports maintenance scheduling and upgrades, optimizing overall asset performance and extending the lifespan of critical equipment.
