Challenge

Niagara-based Bosch Rexroth, a leading specialist in the fields of drive and control technologies, was contracted to manufacture and install a hydraulic system to operate part of the processing system at a mine in Kearney, Ont. The company did not have the means to obtain precise measurements of existing plant components in order to manufacture the new system.

Solution

Bosch Rexroth turned to the research team, who used the Faro Focus to scan the plant and collect geometric data and physical contracts of the building, in the form of 3D images. Research staff then developed the scan data for the Ontario Graphite mine and provided Bosch Rexroth with the design information for their engineering team to use as the base for the hydraulic piping layout.
