3D Laser Scanners are widely used and play a crucial role in shipbuilding design and optimizing costs and time.
1. General introduction
3D Laser Scanning is using a 3D scanner to scan an object or environment in the real world to collect data about the shape and possibly properties of the object.
The purpose of a 3D scanner is usually to create a 3D model. This 3D model consists of point clouds of geometric patterns on the object’s surface. These points can then be used to extrapolate the object’s shape (a process called Reconstruction).
2. Application of 3D Laser Scanning in various fields
3D laser scanning is widely used in many fields and industries with different purposes and needs. Commonly used fields include mold design and processing, architecture and sculpture, manufacturing and healthcare, shipbuilding, etc.
For heavy industries such as shipbuilding, 3D scanners play an important role in ship design, providing optimization solutions and saving costs and time.
3. Problems being encountered in the shipbuilding sector?
Newly built and operated ships must install a ballast water management system that meets international standards for oil pollution prevention (IOPP). It takes a lot of effort and time to survey the current space of the ship to change the location and install equipment on the ship, especially installing the BWTS system.
Surveying ships, ports, etc., using traditional methods faces many difficulties in accuracy and challenging working environment.
Difficulties in testing manufactured equipment such as pipes, ship structural frames… before assembling for equipment accuracy.
4. Solutions
To meet the needs and apply advanced technology in the field to limit problems and save shipbuilding time, Faro has researched and developed solutions and equipment with the Scan3D Dienstleistungsgesellschaft MBH device records objects through 3D laser scanning. Advantages of the scanner:
– Speed: Capture objects at the fastest speed possible with Faro Focus3D.
– Accuracy: With a standard deviation of just 2.5 mm on a 300-meter ship, the scanner delivers optimal accuracy, reliability, and speed.
– Compatibility: Scanned data can be easily integrated into other CAD programs – providing optimal support for subsequent data processing.
– Flexibility: It’s a portable, compact device that can be installed and moved easily in many locations.
5. Implementation steps
Step 1: Plan the survey
Step 2: Determine the location of the scanner.
Step 3: Design the model and determine.
Step 4: Process data with specialized software.
Step 5: Design the model and test.
Step 6: Evaluate and make conclusions.
