3D Laser Scanning Perth | Engineering-Grade LiDAR & Scan-to-CAD
Engineering-grade LiDAR scanning for industrial, mining and infrastructure projects across Perth and Western Australia.
If you’re planning an upgrade, shutdown or retrofit, accurate as-built data is critical. Hamilton By Design provides engineering-led 3D laser scanning (LiDAR) to capture high-accuracy point clouds that can be used directly for scan-to-CAD modelling, clash detection, fabrication planning and as-built documentation.
We don’t just capture scans — we deliver reality capture that supports real engineering decisions.
What We Deliver
Depending on your project, deliverables can include:
- Registered point clouds (E57, RCP, RCS)
- 2D plans, sections and elevations
- Scan-to-CAD models (mechanical, structural, piping)
- Interface models for replacement components
- Clash detection and constructability reviews
- Updated as-built documentation after installation
When 3D Scanning Is the Right Tool
3D laser scanning is ideal when accuracy matters and rework must be avoided:
- Plant upgrades and brownfield modifications
- Shutdown planning and tie-ins
- Structural platforms and access upgrades
- Pipework reroutes in congested areas
- Equipment replacement where OEM lead times are long
- Verification of clearances and interfaces
- Asset documentation and digital twin foundations
Industries We Support in WA
- Mining and mineral processing
- Oil and gas and energy
- Ports and materials handling
- Water and wastewater treatment
- Manufacturing and heavy industry
- Building services where engineering accuracy is required
Why Engineering-Grade LiDAR Matters
Not all “3D scanning” is the same. For industrial and engineering outcomes, you need:
- Millimetre-level accuracy
- Long-range capture across large facilities
- Reliable registration and QA checks
- Data that integrates directly into CAD workflows
Visual scanning may suit walkthroughs and documentation, but when your project involves fabrication, tie-ins and installation, engineering-grade LiDAR is usually essential.
Our Workflow
- Define scope and accuracy requirements
- On-site capture with minimal disruption
- Registration and quality assurance checks
- Delivery of point clouds and/or CAD models
- Optional scan-to-CAD modelling and drawings for fabrication
This approach reduces site re-visits and ensures the data is fit for engineering use.
Why Hamilton By Design
- Engineering-led team, not just scanning operators
- Practical deliverables for construction and fabrication
- Strong experience in operating industrial environments
- Clear scope, consistent QA and project-ready outputs
Perth and WA Coverage
We support projects across Perth metro and regional Western Australia, including:
- Kwinana and Rockingham industrial precincts
- Henderson and Naval Base
- Port of Fremantle
- Project-based mobilisation to Pilbara and Goldfields sites
