Digitalization and Connectivity

Description of center’s mission and objectives

We create a digital survey of your production and logistics facilities. This survey results in a point cloud as a reliable basis for future planning measures. The results are made available to you via a responsive web interface so that no additional software is required on your part. In addition to using it to take measurements, we work with you to identify relevant future use cases for this data. For example, the point cloud can be used in further steps as a foundation for creating digital factory models.

Description of center’s facilities and equipment

To illustrate our approach and the tools we use, we have a small factory demonstrator. This provides an example of how to use the tools and recognize their benefits.

We have access to various commercial and professional applications. These include hardware such as portable or drone-based laser scanners. Furthermore we are experts in developing holistic digital factory models in BIM-tools like Revit. These models are based on the point clouds generated by the laser scanners.
