3D scan as engineering instrument
Would you like to increase the building speed of your ship, know whether a new installation fits into your machine room or train your employees in a safe environment? Then Cofely’s 3D scan is the solution for you. Cofely measures spaces with a laser and translates the details into engineering programs. This means that in a short space of time you can have a three-dimensional reconstruction of your ship. The scanner uses more than one hundred million pixels and therefore has a very high degree of accuracy.
Wide application possibilities
The scanner records all sorts of surroundings. Only shiny objects and liquids are not always possible to scan. Cofely translates the distances measured into engineering programs such as AutoCAD or Cadmatic. This offers various application possibilities:
- modulation to engineering surroundings
- modulation of components (for example installations and engines)
- control on the quality of measuring
- planning and registration of progress in building processes
- training of personnel
- recording of damage
The three-dimensional reconstruction is stored in a databank which is maintained by Cofely. You choose the desired level of accuracy together with the relevant licence. If, later on, you want a more accurate drawing, then it is not necessary to make a new scan. Cofely simply feeds the extra details into the engineering program.
Cofely’s 3D scan offers important advantages for your business process:
- increased building speed;
- less production faults;
- no people for long periods in dangerous spaces;
- minimal disruption of production;
- most accurate measuring;
- current information;
- lower costs.
