Two-Story LOD 200 and 300 Models for Leading Automotive Manufacturer
joydeep | Senior Engineer - PMI Corps
Project Scope
PMC’s expert team was brought in by the largest multi-spindle rotary cutter and tractor implement manufacturer in the country to tackle significant issues. Their factory, built in the 1950s, had expanded production over the years, which requires numerous improvements and updates. By addressing these structural challenges, our client aimed to enhance the facility's efficiency, ensure optimal production conditions, and implement modern energy management solutions—goals that were successfully facilitated through PMC’s services.Metrics:
- 92000 sqft
- Two stories
Deliverables:
- 3D Revit files
- DWG
- NWF
- NWC
- Equipment Lists
Challenges
The project faced several challenges, including time-consuming clash detection, misnamed elements, and ensuring Autodesk workset accuracy. The team addressed these by creating a custom Revit toolbar that leveraged their expertise to expedite processes.
Modeling the required equipment demanded a high level of detail, including entire systems like conveyor networks that had to avoid clashing with other elements.
The initial scans provided by the client were incomplete, necessitating a higher level of detail with PMC’s scanning technicians. Each time a point cloud was received, it was meticulously compared to ensure accuracy, with necessary adjustments made to the model to achieve the required precision.
Solutions
Throughout the process, the team communicated with the client to address specific areas needing more detail. Initially estimated at 42 days, the project was completed ahead of schedule in just 16 days. Despite receiving incomplete scans, the team corrected them and created both LOD 200 and LOD 300 models.
