Webinar Recap: Digitalization of Industrial Plants – 3D Modeling and Digital Twins
On September 3rd, 2024, we hosted an informative webinar on "Digitalization of Industrial Plants: 3D Modeling and Digital Twins." This session, led by Lukasz Dragun (Head of Sales and Customer Support at 3Deling) and Marek Bascik (General Director and CEO at 3Deling), with 80 attendees joining us live for an engaging discussion.
Key Highlights:
1. What is Digitalization, and Why Is It Important for Manufacturing Facilities?
Digitalization is transforming the industrial sector by enhancing operational efficiency, enabling data-driven decision-making, and offering a foundation for long-term innovation. The speakers emphasized the critical role digitalization plays in ensuring competitive advantage and streamlining operations.
2. Benefits of Virtual 3D Models
The creation of virtual 3D models offers a digital replica of physical assets, helping companies better visualize and manage their facilities. The speakers explored how 3D models can significantly reduce downtime, improve maintenance planning, and enhance safety.
3. Laser Scanning Technology
Attendees gained insights into how laser scanning technology works and its pivotal role in capturing detailed spatial data. The session highlighted practical examples of laser scanning applications across various industries, particularly in the creation of accurate 3D models.
4. WebPano – Visual Plant Platform
The webinar introduced WebPano, a platform for publishing scan data. The speakers explained how WebPano can be used without an as-built model and how companies can leverage it to prepare for the creation of 3D models, improving efficiency and accuracy.
5. 3D Models: Intelligent vs. Non-Intelligent
A key discussion point was the difference between intelligent and non-intelligent 3D models. The session covered various CAE platforms for intelligent models, along with their advantages and disadvantages, offering practical advice on which approach may suit different types of industrial facilities.
6. Creating Intelligent Models: What’s Required
The speakers shared a roadmap for creating intelligent 3D models, outlining the essential information required from clients and the importance of active participation throughout the modeling process. This step-by-step approach ensures that the models are customized to fit operational needs.
7. Practical Examples & Case Studies
The webinar concluded with real-life examples, including the digitalization of a production line in a factory. Attendees saw firsthand how 3D models can be used for process optimization, improving both efficiency and accuracy.
