3D Scanning Services Perth | Industrial & Marine 3D Laser Scanning
Hamilton By Design provides engineering-grade 3D scanning services in Perth and Western Australia, supporting local construction projects, shipbuilding and repair facilities, and heavy regional industry including mining and resources. Our engineering-centred 3D scanning solutions capture precise, high-resolution site data that supports design, coordination, fabrication, and verification on complex projects.
Perth and Western Australia are home to major industrial and maritime capabilities, including leading mining contractors, construction firms, fabrication yards, and marine complexes such as the Australian Marine Complex shipbuilding precinct at Henderson. These industries demand accurate as-built documentation, reliable spatial data, and deliverables that integrate directly with engineering and construction workflows. Wikipedia
Why Perth Projects Need Engineering-Grade 3D Scanning
3D scanning in Perth serves a range of heavy-duty applications where traditional measurement methods are insufficient or risk rework and delay.
Construction and Structural Verification
Perth’s built environment and infrastructure projects often involve complex structural interfaces, refurbishment works, or integration with existing facilities. Accurate site capture ensures clash detection, installation planning, and verification against design intent.
Shipbuilding, Marine Infrastructure & Repairs
Facilities such as the Australian Marine Complex support shipbuilding, repair, and offshore fabrication work. High-resolution 3D scanning is critical for reverse engineering hull forms, alignment verification, and modification planning on vessels, marine structures, and dry-dock assemblies. Wikipedia
Regional Heavy Industry & Mining Support
Western Australia is a global mining hub, with major operators and contractors headquartered in Perth. 3D laser scanning accelerates planning and verification for processing plants, stockpile areas, conveyors, and retrofit projects where precise geometry directly impacts project outcomes.
