Point Clouds - BIM

3D laser scanning and point cloud of industrial facilities (pipes, pumps, boilers, others) across various European countries (Portugal, France, Italy, Spain, Malta, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Turkey, and Morocco).

The systems we use offer high-precision 3D data as well as images at a scanning speed of up to 1 million dots per second with a range of up to 330 m for color dot clouds with high level of detail and clarity Own of the real world. The purpose is to create a cloud of points from geometric samples on the surface of the object. These points can then be used to extrapolate the shape of the object.

Additionally, point clouds can be georeferenced for their positioning in planes or larger models.

Engineering, architecture and heritage projects

We conduct precise and comprehensive 3D laser scanning services of open spaces, large infrastructures, buildings, environments, and objects. These scans are highly beneficial for project execution in various fields, including industry, architecture, heritage, and many others. During the measurement and planning phase of buildings, refurbishments, interiors, and outdoor installations, obtaining detailed and reliable measurement data is crucial. Accuracy and precise measurements serve as the foundation for robust planning and documentation. In the architecture and engineering sectors, simple 2D representations are inadequate in today's context.

In Scanphase we produce complete and information-rich 3D BIM models from point cloud data.

Marine 3D Laser Scanning & Modelling Survey

Laser scanning is accurate and thorough, being usable throughout every stage of the retrofitting process, including the initial feasibility assessment, the concept design, and the final detail adjustment phase. Laser scanners boast an accuracy rate of +/- 2 millimeters, enabling engineers to generate extremely precise data and therefore create optimally detailed three-dimensional images of whichever part of the vessel is to be retrofitted. In many cases, laser scans can be performed in a single day, and during smaller operations, such as BWTS  (Ballast Water Treatment Systems) or scrubbing water system retrofits, laser scans can often be performed while the crew is still on board the vessel performing their duties, saving a great deal of time.

Scanning of complete buildings and drawing up plans

With 3D laser scanner we make the precise registration of all facilities and assets that will be used for mapping, as well as for the lifting of plans or updating existing ones. We use the market design tools Autodesk Revit, Autocad, Graphisoft Archicad, Navisworks, Solid Works, and others, with significant time and cost savings. Once the three-dimensional plane survey is done, we can offer 3D modeling of the scanned spaces for the creation of a BIM model.

When faced with the task of creating plans for an existing structure we know how difficult it can be. It is rare for buildings to have a simple form. Using a distance meter or measuring tape is a tedious and difficult job, which then has to translate into specifications on plans and trust that no mistakes were made or features were omitted.

Reverse engineering projects

The 3D laser scanner is highly suitable for reverse engineering purposes. It captures detailed data, projecting a three-dimensional image of the scanned object. This capability enables the creation of virtual assemblies, facilita- ting the identification of overlaps and ensuring precise piece fittings.

A 3D scanner is employed to scan and analyze a real-world object or envir-onment, gathering data regarding its shape and potentially its visual attributes such as color and texture. This collected data serves as the foundation for constructing a 3D digital model.

These models find applications in gene-rating customized drawings or in the production of spare parts. Additionally, we conduct analyses to determine suitable 3D printing or machining solutions based on your specific needs and the materials required for the piece.
