Scan Hub has scanned and modeled hundreds of factories used for steel fabrication, food processing, materials handling, and many other uses, either full of machines or empty, for many clients Australia-wide. Process Facility 3D laser scanning and scan-to-BIM The Challenge Large factories full of machine lines and complexity require experience to capture in 3D. Scan Hub has over 10 years of this experience, and we're armed with the best laser scanning technology. Placement and

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. Rail Track Maintenance Machine - Laser Scanning for Certification 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 s

Scan Hub has undertaken many 3D laser scanning and CAD Modelling projects for clients installing and maintaining pumps and impellers used in water treatment, mining sludge transfer, and industrial sites Australia-wide. Volute Pump Housing - Laser Scanned and CAD Modeled The Challenge The organic shapes of volute-style pump housings and associated impellers are complex to measure with any method other than 3D laser scanning. The curves and mating surfaces required for these pu

Scan Hub was engaged by a fuel system management client to support the redesign of components in the fuel storage site at an Australian domestic airport. The project formed part of an overall system review of aircraft refueling at this Capital City airport. The Challenge The fuel storage facility is a highly dangerous environment for any work activity. Scan Hub operators had the experience to adhere to strict safety protocols and procedures to enter the site and conduct exten

Scan Hub was engaged by a major mining client to support the engineering assessment of a large shovel bucket component used on a 1,200-tonne coal mining shovel near Singleton, NSW. The project formed part of a Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) after the component experienced cracking under operational loads. The Challenge Large mining equipment operates under extreme conditions, making accurate dimensional information essential when investigating structural failures an

Scan Hub was engaged to create an accurate digital model of an Indian Pacific passenger rail car for a client responsible for maintaining mining, freight and passenger rolling stock in Western Australia. The project required separate capture of the rail car body and wheel bogies before combining them into a complete as-built 3D model. The Challenge Rail vehicles contain complex geometry and large numbers of interconnected components that are difficult to measure manually. Acc

A mechanical engineering client engaged Scan Hub to provide accurate existing-condition information for a hospital extension involving new structural steel foundations. The project required new steel beams to be designed and installed between existing concrete walls and columns, making precise measurements critical to successful fabrication and installation. The Challenge The existing concrete structure included irregular surfaces and curved faces that would have been difficu

Scan Hub is proud to support the development of Spirit of Australia 2, the latest attempt to set a new outright Unlimited World Water Speed Record. Building on the legacy of Ken Warby's record-breaking Spirit of Australia, the project required highly accurate 3D laser scanning and 3D modelling to assist with the development and optimisation of the new vessel. The Challenge At speeds approaching 350 mph, even the smallest variation in the hull or tail fin can significantly aff

Scan Hub has completed 3D laser scanning projects on a wide range of vehicles, from passenger cars and four-wheel drives through to military vehicles and heavy mining equipment. By capturing accurate dimensional information, manufacturers and engineering teams can confidently develop replacement components, aftermarket accessories and new product designs using reliable existing-condition data. The Challenge Modern vehicle bodies and chassis contain complex curves and surfaces

When CSIRO required highly accurate existing-condition information for one of its 22-metre radio telescopes at the Australia Telescope Compact Array near Narrabri, NSW, Scan Hub was engaged to deliver a detailed 3D laser scanning survey. Using industry-leading 3D laser scanning technology, our team completed approximately 110 individual scans of the telescope, capturing both the external structure and internal equipment rooms. The project included scanning from ground level a

The Kandanga rail and road bridges in Queensland, Australia, have stood for over 100 years. Maintaining such ageing infrastructure presents challenges, especially when precise measurements and detailed assessments are needed for restoration. Recently, Scan Hub used 3D laser scanning technology to capture these historic bridges in unprecedented detail. The result is a 3D point cloud with over 180 million points, offering project managers and engineers a powerful tool to plan a
