Digital Twin for Facility Management

Prevu3D digital twin solution helps gain visibility of operations to anticipate and solve your toughest facilities management challenges

Digital Twin for Facility Management

WHAT WE DO

Our digital twin solution provides a comprehensive view of facility layouts, assets, and resources all on one platform

Prevu3D digital twin software provides detailed digital replicas of physical spaces for visualization, analysis, and better decision making to optimize facility performance.

Empower facility managers with valuable insights, boosting productivity and saving costs

Empower facility managers with valuable insights, boosting productivity and saving costs

Lack of complete, out-of-date, or non-existent facility documentation can slow down facility management operations. Prevu3D empowers teams to document, evaluate, and collaborate for better decision-making.

  • Easily access and manage critical information to help prevent costly downtime and extend the lifespan of assets.
  • Provide digital representations of assets and layouts to project collaborators, reducing risks and costs related to physical site visits..
  • Create and maintain detailed asset inventories for a single source of truth, improving engineering workflows.

What you need to know

  • 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 data generated by a 3D scanner. 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?

    The process of creating a 3D object out of the point cloud data is called meshing. A meshing 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.

The power of digital twins: how LovePac used Prevu3D to move to a new facility in record time

LovePac’s relocation to a new facility posed risks. Without accurate visuals, it could have been costly. Learn how Prevu3D simplified the process, clearing old machinery and installing new equipment, effortlessly — eliminating errors, saving time and labor.

View Case Study
From a collaborative and brainstorming point of view, we could create scenarios in a few minutes and directly intervene if something did not work. We see the actual layout before machinery is removed from the facility. We can physically see how everything will fit. It’s amazing!
