Description
Point cloud scanning is no longer just a validation tool—it’s a core part of how we design, install, and document automated manufacturing systems. In this session, we’ll walk through how our team uses the Leica BLK360 scanner to capture real-world context at every stage of a project. From scanning existing facilities for layout integration to scanning at FATs, construction sites, or even completed lines for record set drawings, 3D scanning has become key to identifying conflicts early, creating mesh-based equipment models, and aligning installations with design intent. Learn how portable scanning and tools like ReCap software and Cintoo help streamline communication, reduce risk, and improve accuracy across disciplines.
