3D Scanning Engineering in Geraldton

Delivering Accuracy, Efficiency & Engineering Certainty for WA’s Mid-West Industries

Geraldton is one of Western Australia’s most strategically important regional centres — a city where port operations, grain and mineral export infrastructure, heavy-industry fabrication, fishing, renewables, and large-scale construction all intersect. With its combination of coastal exposure, industrial logistics and expanding regional infrastructure, Geraldton demands a high level of engineering precision.

Hamilton By Design supports Geraldton businesses and project teams with an integrated workflow of 3D LiDAR laser scanning, 3D CAD modelling, mechanical & structural engineering, and fabrication-ready drafting. For brownfield upgrades, shutdowns, port expansions, industrial maintenance or new plant installations, our engineer-led scanning and modelling process removes guesswork and delivers millimetre-accurate confidence.

Why Geraldton Is Unique — and Why Precision Matters Here

Geraldton’s industrial environment brings a mix of coastal, agricultural, mining-supply and port-driven challenges:

A major deep-water port exporting grain, mineral sands, iron ore and project cargo.
Salt, wind and marine exposure, creating elevated corrosion risk and structural degradation over time.
Rapid industrial expansion, including renewables, hydrogen developments and logistics infrastructure.
Heavy agricultural processing and storage facilities requiring accurate as-built documentation.
Fabrication workshops and marine-repair industries that depend on precise measurements for fit-ups and installations.

This combination makes high-accuracy digital engineering essential for safe planning, fabrication, installation and long-term maintenance.

3D LiDAR Laser Scanning — The Foundation of Reliable Engineering in Geraldton

Hamilton By Design uses engineering-grade LiDAR scanning to capture highly accurate as-built conditions for industrial assets, port infrastructure, conveyor systems, structural steel, storage facilities, platforms, marine installations and complex brownfield environments.

Our scans deliver:

Millimetre-accurate digital geometry
Complete capture of steelwork, conveyors, chutes, tanks, pipework and machinery layouts
Safer data collection with minimal site intrusion
Faster planning for shutdowns, retrofits and upgrades
Confidence that fabrication will fit the first time

For Geraldton’s industrial clients, accurate scanning reduces rework, speeds up fabrication, and provides a digital asset model that supports efficient maintenance.

3D CAD Modelling — Turning Reality Into Reliable Engineering Data

Once scanned, your site is modelled into intelligent, workable 3D CAD assemblies. This provides a digital foundation for engineering, fabrication and installation.

Our modelling services include:

Mechanical & structural 3D assemblies
Conveyor, chute, tank, pump, and pipeline models
General arrangement (GA) drawings
Fabrication drawings, isometrics and BOMs
Clash detection & layout optimisation
Brownfield upgrade planning

Geraldton industries — from port operations to fabrication yards — benefit significantly from models that depict true as-built conditions, not assumptions.
