Industrial

Fast, safe data collection and analysis.

Industrial and manufacturing plant facilities find tremendous value with 3D laser scanning due to its speed and accuracy capturing information about detailed and complex environments.

Prologue can quickly and easily inspect building interiors and exteriors; structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing features; tanks and other equipment. Our technicians can efficiently capture data in areas where accessibility is difficult or hazardous, with the smallest details being captured in highly congested areas.

Tanks and containment dykes can be scanned for volume calculations and deformation analysis, while precision modeling of facilities and equipment can assist with facility management and process mapping.

We use 3D point cloud data to quickly and easily inspect structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing features as well as tanks and other equipment for safety ramifications, cut/fill analyses and more.

Benefits for Industrial Sites:

Minimal Shutdown – Most scans can be performed during normal facility operations and require 50% to 70% less time on site than traditional methods of measurement.

Accurate As-Builts – Accurate permanent records for both immediate and future use.

Increased Safety – Measure objects from a distance and completely touch-free. A safer and more versatile means of measurement than ever before.

Complex Environments – Quick, accurate measurement of even the most complicated industrial facilities.

Versatile Deliverables – We deliver models in whatever format best suits your need including Autodesk® Revit®, CAD drawings, orthophotos, point clouds and more.

Varied Detail – We can provide anything from basic construction drawings to complex, ornately detailed building information models.

Industrial Applications Include:

  • Safety planning

  • Process annotations

  • Prefabrication

  • Equipment documentation

  • Fits and installation requirements

  • Clearances

  • Training models

  • And more

3D point cloud data revealed deviations in the walls of this 650,000 gallon storage tank, enabling Prologue to report on concerns to tank integrity.

“Using the model allowed us to show the structural engineer the exact layout of the existing structure, adjacent mechanical equipment and required clearances. We were able to shift the unit in the model, minimizing redesign and reinstallation of roof supports – and additional costs for the customer.”
