Digital twin for Food and Beverage
Prevu3D digital twin solution enables food companies to accelerate the reconfiguration process in pre-design projects.
WHAT WE DO
Extent the physical into the digital world to optimize your production sites
Prevu3D digital twin solution helps food and beverage companies visualize their operations and production layouts to avoid delays or costly errors.
Leaner food production, better collaboration
Leaner food production, better collaboration
Tight schedules and expensive machinery are facts of the food and beverage industry. Inexistent or dated drawings, CAD files and documentation often don’t reflect real-life builds. Working with accurate 3D replicas of your facilities cuts delays and errors.
- Maximize spacial and machine configuration faster than CAD.
- Provides better visual context then CAD design.
- Communicate changes and make decisions faster.
Digital twin key features for the Food and Beverage industry
Simple yet powerful measure and editing tools
Visualize changes in real time. Use automatic collision detection simulation with human or forklift avatars running through digital environments.
Easy integration with design software
Validate and update design documents with as-built digital twin. Add CAD objects in seconds, use AI to match objects, and generate asset documentation swiftly.
Share design iterations efficiently and quickly
Instantly share site context with internal and external collaborators to assess project needs. Better visual context facilitates the procurement process.

What is a digital twin?
A digital twin is a virtual replica of a real-world space or physical asset. Digital twins reflect the current asset condition and can be continuously updated with data from its physical counterpart. Digital twins can create simulations and predict future behavior, streamline collaboration and optimize operations.

What is a point cloud?
A point cloud is the raw material of a digital twin. Point clouds are created by panning a 3D scanner back and forth over walls, piping, pieces of equipment, vehicles and much more. The scanner head emits a laser beam or optical-spectrum light and detects the reflection. The scanner measures the timing and intensity of the reflection. It creates millions of points each with a unique position and orientation in space. Multiple passes of a scanner create a dense cloud of points, hence the name. While raw point clouds are rich sources of information, they are too big to use in a digital twin. Prevu3D turns these raw point clouds into actionable data.

What is a polygon mesh?
Processing a point cloud with specialized computer software and hardware creates a polygon mesh. The software creates lines to connect each point to its adjacent points based on analysis of the position and orientation of each point. Adjacent points are joined by lines to form an array of tiny polygonal shapes. This array is a polygon mesh. The higher the density of the point cloud the more surface details appear on the mesh. A variety of data compression techniques can be applied to meshes to reduce the size of the mesh to content that users can interact with on wireless mobile devices, while preserving detail. Prevu3D has the best meshing solution on the market for digital twins.
