We have more than 10 years of experience and knowledge in 3D laser scanning many rail track maintenance machines and other rolling stock for many clients Australia-wide.

The Challenge
Rolling stock machines are complex and big. Capturing these machines in 3D with sufficient detail and accuracy for scan-to-BIM deliverables requires knowledge and experience.
Our Solution
Scan Hub has solutions and experience to scan these large machines in 3D with precision up to +/- 1mm. Our scan-to-BIM team also uses state-of-the-art CAD software designed to work with scan mesh or point cloud files to create accurate digital twins. We can draft DXF profiles for regulator approval or 3D models for design consideration.
Project Outcome
With an accurate CAD model or DXF profiles, our clients can make better decisions and confidently submit data to the rail regulators for approval. This process drastically reduces project risks.
