TOTAL STATION - 3D MEASUREMENT
A total station is an optical surveying instrument that uses electronics to calculate angles and distances. It combines the functions of a theodolite with that of a transit level and electronic distance meter (EDM). The combination of these functions makes it possible to capture the relative position of the to be measured points (XYZ Coordinates). A 3D measurement is usually performed during repairs, modifications, new builds or as-built/ quality control checks.
3D SCANNING
3D scanning is like making a digital 3D photograph of the real world – but where each pixel in a digital photo only contains color information, each pixel in our “3D images” further contains information about its position in XYZ coordinates in space. Which in turn makes it possible to make a detailed 3D measurement.
Laser Tracker with Faro Vantage Laser:
Portable Laser Trackers make on-site measurement easy and fast, reducing inspection cycle times by up to 75%. They measure 3D coordinates by tracking a target that the user moves from one point to another on the measured object.
Tracker arm/ Coordinate measuring machine (CMM)
The portable tracker arm / CMM makes on-site measurement easy and fast where the tracker can’t ‘see.’ The arm is able to reach the to be measured 3D point ‘around the corner’ necessary to make a complete 3D measurement.
Why invest in dimensional surveys?
- Reduced design, re-work and downtime
- Reduction of number of team members and time in potentially hazardous areas
- A risk free operation
- Guaranteed fit of pre-fabricated items
- Data that is always available for review
- No need for a redesign during or after installation
- Minimize fit-up issues that result in schedule or budget overruns
