Introduction
Plant expansion and renovations are one of the most complex stages that require careful planning, detailing, and engineering to rebuild the plant to your vision. In most cases, the preparation works are done when the plant is still running because closing down the plant abruptly isn’t an option. Only during the final stage, for the installations & final executions, do plants shut down. During renovations, a laser scan for plant expansion can help you get more accurate and speed up the renovations.
SES Digital is a project management consultant that offers laser scanning services in Gujarat. We pride ourselves for numerous on the successful completion of numerous plant renovations and factory expansions, delivered on time and well within the budget.
Laser scan for plant expansion
The technology behind laser scanning has developed rapidly over the years. And with the upgrades, our laser scanning services in Gujarat have also evolved. Laser scanning is a cost-effective and fast method for various stages of renovations. Here are more details of how using laser scan for plant expansion can be a smart decision-
1 Retrofits & demolitions
3D laser scans can capture millions of information per second with 100% accuracy, allowing owners to create an accurate as-built design. These are especially useful during expansion and demolitions. The information can assist you with renovations, retrofits, demolition, and expansion.
2. Clash detection
During the renovation, if you are planning to upgrade the technology and equipment, then 3D laser scanning can help you avoid crashes. Implementing laser scans for plant expansion helps the engineers identify potential placement problems such as making sure the equipment is of the right size for their designated places, laser scanning for piping can also determine if there are any malfunctions in the piping structure.
3. Coordinations
Laser scans can also help you coordinate and collaborate with other engineers and teams. During demolitions and expansions, many teams and workers are hard at work, working on different aspects. This can result in communication gaps which could cause some serious damage. This is where laser scanning can help you dodge such bullets. It enables you to make smarter, timely decisions to avoid malfunctions and bottlenecks. As the whole team stays informed about the signs of progress and changes, you will be able to work more smoothly without any mistakes.
4. Safety management
During expansion and even after completion of the project, safety is one of the top priorities. Laser scan for plant expansion avails you the convenience of speedy data gathering and remote sensing abilities to reduce human exposure to hazards. A laser scan also detects ductworks and high structures that are out of reach to humans.
5. Redesigning
Laser scanning can also help with redesigning by capturing tiny details and providing accurate dimensions, so you can get a head start on the reconstruction and demolition phase. From scanning big structures to detailing how they need to be restructured and their feasibility of them, laser scans are a monumental technology.
