Operation and maintenance space planning are essential considerations in all upgrades, especially where space is limited. Communicating your design with your clients is easy when they can see how it will fit in to the existing space.

All planning can be done electronically before a weld has been laid. Maintenance departments, operations and design personnel can give feed back, clashes investigated and changes can be made ahead of time, saving time and money for all concerned.

A project just completed involved fitting a strainer skid in a tight location. This task was made simple by 3D visualisation of the future model inside the existing site scan. Virtual reality and 3D equipment audits:

Automation Mechatronics (AMI) can provide 3D models with laser scans of potential upgrades. Our engineers will work with your team to plan and design various types of installations. The client can investigate these models with internal stakeholders using virtual reality and standard 3D plant walk throughs and 3D equipment orbits to give a feeling of the planned space for operation. AMI moves seamlessly from AutoCAD 3D models and the laser scan to show how equipment will operate/function in the space and avoid any problems ahead of time.
