In pharmaceutical and industrial settings, space is tight, risks are high, and precision is everything. That’s why Premech integrates 3D scanning and reality capture into the early stages of every retrofit or integration project. These digital tools don’t just streamline engineering workflows, they transform what’s possible.
Why 3D Scanning?
3D laser scanning allows our team to generate a precise digital twin of a facility, capturing structural geometry, utilities, and potential clash points with millimetre-level accuracy. Unlike hand measurements or outdated site drawings, scanning ensures that every decision is grounded in reality.
This approach is especially valuable in brownfield projects, where as-built conditions can differ substantially from original plans. With scanning, we see everything, from ceiling beams to cable trays, before lifting a spanner.
Seamless Equipment Integration
We overlay vendor-supplied 3D models into the scanned site data to simulate installation conditions. This allows us to design surrounding pipework, access systems or platforms with full confidence that they’ll fit.
Clash Detection & Retrofit Readiness
3D scans dramatically reduce the risk of spatial clashes, a common cause of rework and delay. We can adjust designs in the model phase instead of the fabrication stage, keeping projects on schedule.
Client Collaboration & Sign-Off
Clients can walk through the proposed solution before we begin fabrication. Using visualisation tools and 3D renders, we remove ambiguity and get fast, confident stakeholder buy-in.
Repeatable, Documented Accuracy
Every project gets a detailed 3D record, providing traceability, facilitating repeat work, and supporting compliance documentation, a must have requirement in regulated industries.
Future-Proofing Through Digital Engineering
By investing in 3D scanning and modelling, Premech bridges the gap between consultancy-level design and turnkey execution. Our clients, project engineers, managers, and senior stakeholders gain a safer, smarter path from concept to commissioning.
Because when you’re working in high-risk, high-value environments, there’s no room for guesswork.
