Mechanical Engineering & 3D Scanning Rosebery Tasmania
Rosebery is a working mining town, and the work on site is practical. Fitters, riggers, maintenance crews and supervisors are often dealing with real plant problems before the drawings catch up.
A chute wears out. A pipe spool needs replacing. A pump base does not match what is on the drawing. Access is tight. Shutdown time is limited. The job needs to fit the first time.
Hamilton By Design supports Rosebery and Tasmania’s west coast with mechanical engineering, 3D laser scanning, scan-to-CAD, reverse engineering and drafting support for mining, processing and industrial sites.
Supporting Fitters, Riggers and Maintenance Teams
On brownfield sites, the people closest to the work often understand the problem best.
A fitter may know where the wear is occurring. A rigger may know where the lift or install will be difficult. A maintenance supervisor may know which parts of the plant have been modified over time.
Hamilton By Design helps turn that site knowledge into usable engineering information.
We can assist with:
- site measurement and 3D scanning
- scan-to-CAD modelling
- mechanical drafting
- reverse engineering
- chute and hopper replacement
- conveyor and transfer point modifications
- pipework and spool development
- pump, bracket and baseplate measurement
- shutdown planning support
- fabrication-ready drawings
3D Scanning for Rosebery Mining and Processing Sites
Rosebery’s mining and processing environment makes accurate site information important. Existing drawings may be outdated, incomplete or missing. Plant may have changed over years of maintenance, repair and modification.
3D laser scanning captures the actual site conditions before design or fabrication begins.
This can help reduce:
- site rework
- fabrication errors
- unexpected clashes
- repeat site visits
- shutdown delays
- uncertainty during quoting and planning
For mining and concentrator environments, scanning can be used around conveyors, transfer points, chutes, pipework, tanks, pump areas, platforms, stairs, guarding and structural interfaces.
Scan-to-CAD and Mechanical Drafting
Once the site has been scanned, Hamilton By Design can convert the captured information into practical CAD deliverables.
Depending on the job, this may include:
- registered point cloud data
- E57, RCP or RCS files
- 3D CAD models
- SolidWorks or Inventor models
- AutoCAD DWG layouts
- general arrangement drawings
- fabrication drawings
- sections and elevations
- clearance and clash checks
The aim is simple: provide information that helps the job move from site problem to fabrication, installation or engineering review.
Mechanical Engineering Support for Concentrator Plant Work
Rosebery includes underground mining and onsite processing, with production of zinc, copper and lead concentrates, as well as gold and silver.
For concentrator and mineral processing work, Hamilton By Design can support:
- crushing and grinding area modifications
- flotation plant access and layout checks
- slurry pipework and pump arrangements
- chute and liner replacement
- conveyor upgrades
- transfer point improvements
- platform, stair and access changes
- guarding and maintenance access reviews
- brownfield plant modifications
This type of work often needs a mix of practical trade understanding, site capture, CAD modelling and mechanical engineering judgement.
Secondment Support for Rosebery Projects
For longer shutdowns, ongoing upgrades or peak workload periods, Hamilton By Design can also provide support through secondment.
This allows experienced engineers, designers, draftspersons, fitters, fabricators and riggers to support your team directly during planning, site measurement, drawing updates, fabrication support or project delivery.
