Leapfrog Scanning: Experts in Industrial Plant Scanning

Leapfrog Scanning specializes in industrial-grade 3D laser scanning, providing accurate and reliable data collection even in the most challenging environments. Our advanced scanners are designed to withstand extreme conditions, including heat, cold, moisture, and vibration, ensuring comprehensive scanning deep within your facility. We capture everything from large structures to intricate piping and conduit, ensuring no critical detail is overlooked. With long-lasting battery-powered scanners, we can operate efficiently in areas without power access. For hard-to-reach locations, our specialty equipment ensures complete coverage. Trust Leapfrog Services to deliver precise, high-quality scans that support your industrial projects with unmatched accuracy and efficiency.

Get Up-to-Date CAD Models

When modifying existing equipment, having an accurate 3D as-built model is essential for planning piping routes, determining equipment dimensions, and ordering necessary parts. The CAD model generated through 3D laser scanning can be tailored to include as much or as little detail as required.

To ensure efficiency, CAD models are optimized for usability, preventing them from becoming too large or heavy, which could slow down or freeze your system. Models can be organized into layers, allowing you to include or exclude specific elements based on your project’s needs and budget. For instance, many clients opt to leave out conduit if it is not relevant to their scope of work.

Safety is Our Top Priority

At Leapfrog Scanning, we prioritize safety above all else. Our scanning technicians are highly experienced in industrial environments and follow strict safety protocols to ensure a secure working environment. Each technician undergoes extensive safety training and is equipped with all necessary Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) required for the job.

Additionally, laser scanning enhances overall safety by minimizing the need for personnel to be in close proximity to plant equipment. By reducing the time spent taking manual measurements and capturing images, our scanning process helps create a safer work environment while maintaining accuracy and efficiency.

Industrial Plant Digital Twin

A digital twin walkthrough can be generated using advanced 3D laser scanning technology, offering an interactive and immersive way to explore an industrial plant virtually. Given the vast amount of equipment and critical data within a facility, a digital twin serves as a powerful tool to enhance productivity and efficiency. The ability to navigate the plant in a virtual environment with high-resolution panoramic imagery alone makes laser scanning a worthwhile investment. While the full potential of a digital twin may unfold over time, organizations quickly realize its value as their teams begin utilizing it. Beyond simple navigation, a digital twin unlocks a wealth of possibilities by embedding or linking crucial information directly within the virtual model. This makes it easier for users to locate and access essential data that might otherwise be difficult to find. Additionally, integrating real-time data into the digital twin presents an exciting opportunity to enhance decision-making and streamline operations.
