Laser scanning in plant engineering

Laser scanning in plant engineering

Key Takeaways

  • Laser scanning enables the precise digital recording of existing industrial plants as a basis for conversions, extensions and technical documentation.
  • The CONENGA Group creates high-resolution 3D point clouds and digital plant models for industrial, energy and power plant facilities.
  • Modern laser scanners capture complex system geometries without contact, even during operation and under difficult access conditions.
  • Scan-to-CAD processes enable planning to be carried out directly on the basis of real as-built data and collisions to be identified at an early stage.
  • The CONENGA Group combines laser scanning, CAD integration and technical planning to create an end-to-end digital working basis for industrial projects.

What does laser scanning mean in plant engineering?

Laser scanning is a process for the high-precision digital measurement of existing industrial plants and technical systems. Real plant structures are captured as three-dimensional point clouds and used for planning, documentation and technical development. The data generated serves as the basis for conversions, extensions, collision checks and digital models. The CONENGA Group supports industrial companies with modern laser scanning technology, scan-to-CAD integration and direct further processing of the data in technical planning processes.

FAQ about laser scanning

A point cloud is a digital 3D image of a system consisting of millions of individual measuring points. It depicts real geometries, pipelines, components and building structures true to scale. This data can be transferred directly into CAD and BIM systems.

With scan-to-CAD, laser scan data is integrated directly into CAD systems and further processed for technical planning. This allows planning to be carried out directly in the digital image of the existing system. The CONENGA Group combines laser scanning and CAD planning in an end-to-end process without media discontinuity

Laser scanning is used for plant conversions, extensions, inspection documents, collision checks and digital twins, among other things. The technology enables a quick and complete as-built survey, particularly for complex industrial and energy systems.

The CONENGA Group takes over the surveying of existing facilities, the creation of point clouds and the integration of the data into CAD and planning processes. In addition, virtual tours and digital models are provided, which can be used for project coordination, technical coordination and documentation.
