Hunter Valley Laser Scanning Built for SolidWorks & Autodesk Inventor
Laser scanning is only valuable if the data can actually be used for engineering and design.
Across the Hunter Valley, many mining, power generation, and industrial projects rely on SolidWorks and Autodesk Inventor for mechanical design, fabrication, and modification work. In these environments, a scan that cannot be used directly in CAD software introduces risk, delays, and unnecessary cost.
That’s why Hamilton By Design provides engineering-grade laser scanning in the Hunter Valley, specifically delivered so scan data can be used directly in SolidWorks and Autodesk Inventor.

Why CAD-Ready Laser Scanning Matters
Many laser scanning services focus on data capture only. While the point cloud may look impressive, it often falls short when it comes time to design:
Poor registration or alignment
Insufficient accuracy for mechanical tolerances
Data that cannot be reliably modelled in CAD
Extra time spent cleaning or reworking scans
Why spend money on a scan that can’t be used for engineering?
Hamilton By Design plans and executes laser scanning as an engineering input, not just a visual deliverable.
Engineering-Grade Scanning for Real Outcomes
Hamilton By Design delivers Hunter Valley laser scanning that supports:
Direct use in SolidWorks
Accurate referencing in Autodesk Inventor
Fabrication-ready modelling
Mechanical and structural modification work
Our scanning workflows are designed so captured data integrates seamlessly into CAD environments, reducing rework and accelerating project delivery.
Typical Hunter Valley Applications
Laser scanning that is usable in SolidWorks and Inventor is critical for:
Mining equipment upgrades and modifications
Draglines, conveyors, and transfer stations
CHPP and materials handling infrastructure
Power generation and utility assets
Brownfield industrial upgrades and shutdown work
In these environments, accuracy and usability matter far more than visual appearance.
Engineer-Led Laser Scanning
At Hamilton By Design, laser scanning is delivered by engineers who understand how the data will be used.
This ensures:
Scan resolution matches design intent
Critical interfaces are captured correctly
CAD modelling can begin immediately
Accountability is maintained from scan through to design
The result is scan data that engineers can trust.
Deliverables That Add Real Value
Depending on project requirements, Hamilton By Design can provide:
Registered, engineering-grade point clouds
CAD-ready reference data
Section views and alignment references
Models and drawings derived directly from scan data
All deliverables are scoped to support engineering, fabrication, and construction, not just visualisation.
Hunter Valley Laser Scanning That Can Actually Be Used
Laser scanning should remove uncertainty, not create more work.
By delivering CAD-ready laser scanning for SolidWorks and Autodesk Inventor, Hamilton By Design supports Hunter Valley projects with data that can be used immediately for design, modification, and installation.
