Laser Scanning Newcastle: Accurate Existing-Condition Data for Pipework and Engineering Projects Engineering modifications to existing industrial facilities often begin with a deceptively simple question: What is actually there? For engineers, designers, pipework detailers and project managers working across Newcastle and the Hunter Region, the answer cannot always be found in an old drawing set. Plants change. Pipework is rerouted. Equipment is replaced. Structural steel is modified. Platforms are added. Services are relocated. In many brownfield facilities, the drawings available to the engineering team may represent what was originally designed rather than what currently exists. This is where laser scanning Newcastle projects can provide significant value. Modern 3D laser scanning allows engineers to capture existing plant, structures, pipework and equipment as a highly detailed three-dimensional point cloud. Instead of designing around assumptions, project teams can work from digi...

Pipework Detailing : Hamilton By Design

Image
Pipework Detailing | From Drafting to 3D Scanning for Industrial Projects Pipework detailing has traditionally been seen as the final step in the design process—taking engineering layouts and converting them into fabrication drawings. However, in modern industrial environments, this approach is no longer sufficient. In mining, processing plants, and industrial facilities, pipework systems evolve over time. Modifications, maintenance, and plant upgrades often result in a mismatch between original drawings and actual site conditions. This creates risk across the entire project lifecycle. 🔧 The Role of Pipework Detailing Pipework detailing is the bridge between: Engineering design Fabrication Installation It involves producing: Spool drawings Flange orientations Pipe routing layouts Support details Fabrication-ready documentation These drawings must be accurate, practical, and aligned with real-world site conditions. ⚠️ The Problem with Traditional Drafting Historically, pipework detaili...

Pump Skids - Design - Fabrication

Image
Pump Skids - Design - Fabrication with SolidWorks Hamilton By Design have many years experience in the design and manufacture of skid frame units, both for off-shore and on-shore use. The team at Hamilton By Design is able to design, detail along with fabricate complete solutions, or, alternatively fabricate base frames and pipework and assemble   these together with clients free issued equipment into complete modules. We have considerable experience in design, development, fabricating and lining out skids, mounting gas boosters, drive motors, pumps and receiver vessels as well as in-line equipment, we are able to fabricate the basic frames with pump bases and have these machined after welding to ensure close alignment tolerances between individual items of equipment, vital to ensure trouble-free operation. The completed frame units can then be surface treated to whatever specification the client requests, be it galvanized or a paint system.    ...
