On Site Scanning / Surveying

Highly motivated scan teams provide scanning services worldwide.
Unison owns at present 2 laser scanners with complementing technologies.

Custom equipment as well as for the Plant Industry specially developed work flows are an integral part of  the work process. In house developed software applications enhance the ease of use of laser scan data.

Unison uses accompanying classic surveying methods in order to provide Georeferencing and to facilitate the registration process.It also provides the quality assurance of a second instrument required to capture complex industrial plants.

3D Scans with color (photo mapping)

Scan data can be enhanced with photo realistic information taken from an SLR camera. For every scan position photos are stitched together to provide a 360° - panorama which is then transferred through special calibrated equipment to the point cloud and the Plantview Documentation.

Our goal is to bring your Industrial Plant, no matter where it is located, to every computer in your organization immediately after been captured from our 3D scanners without any additional financial investment in hardware or software.

UNISON PlantView benefits

• Reduction of site visits
• Guaranteed accurate measurements
• Central communication platform
• Visual documentation (photos)
• Overall cost reduction

Unison PlantView is a web based Internet Explorer navigation interface that provides a visual structured interface of the scanned plant. The captured scans are presented with a 360° photo realistic Panorama View (Truviews).
The installation can be made on a local workstation as well as on a server environment.  The server installation enables access to the scan documentation for the complete project team (unlimited users)

Unison PlantView is a standard deliverable for all Unison scan projects.  Existing scan projects can be imported in Plantview as well.

    is a 3D point cloud created from a 3d laser scanner that has been optimized to work on a web browser. Leica-TruView is a free plug in for Internet explorer.

Leica Truview Functionality
Measuring, coordinate readout, redlining, project communication tools, links to external documents (hyperlinks) or databases

Computer Requirements

Revamp

3D point cloud scan data can be referenced and used for plant modifications, measurements in CAD Systems short after the registration process

Reverse Engineering

Complex 3D vector models and drawings are created from the registered 3d point cloud using special software algorithms.

• 3D Model (Microstation, Autocad, PDS, PDMS, Tricad)
• Isometrics
• Piping plans
• Layout plans
• MTO /BMO
• Digital Factory

Plant Maintenance / Operation / Engineering

>>As Built Isometrics Workflow Video

• Intelligent As built Isometrics from laser scanning data
• Piping Specification modifications
• Material Take off
• Integration of new piping isometrics in 3D Laser Scanning Environment including Interference detection and feasibility study

3D-Walkthrough / 3D Design Review

>>3D-Walkthrough Video

The easy visualization of 3d point cloud models with the integration possibility of 3D CAD models (PDS, PDMS, Microstation, Autocad etc.) provides a powerful design review solution for small or complex projects. Engineering solutions can then be easily analyzed against existing accurate on site data.

• Navisworks (Autodesk)
• Smartplant Review (Intergraph) + Cloudworx (Leica)

Interference Detection

3D design data is compared with existing accurate as built information.

Interferences are reported in a visual as well as in a written report

Inspection

3D design data is compared with existing accurate as built information.

Deviations are reported in a visual as well as in a written report.
