Our BIM expert, Álex Ruiz will present the lecture “Laser scanner and point cloud” at EXPOBIM 2020.

On November the 5th, 6 th and 7th EXPOBIM” 2020 will be held, where Álex Ruiz, from Acero Estudio Peru, BIM Consulting Department, will present the symposium “Laser scanner and point cloud” at the Catholic University of Lima. The congress will be broadcasted through Zoom and Facebook live and will have as speakers, prestigious international experts.

On Thursday the 5th, the event will start with the engineer Pablo Zuñiga Guevara, with his presentation “BIM application in construction projects in Colombia”, and will be followed by the architect Sergio Villanueva-Meyer with “Innovation methodologies in the construction industry”.

On Friday, the two presentations are “BIM from the technical side”, by the engineer Jonattan Gómez Araya and the day will end with Renzo Ríos Rugel who will take about “Automation in BIM”.

The last day, Saturday the 7th, will begin with “Infrastructure in BIM” whose speaker is the engineer Alejandro Alvarazo Lezama, and to finish the event, Álex Ruiz will expose the symposium “Laser scanner and point cloud”, an expert in photogrammetry and 3D laser scanning of the Acero Estudio team in Peru.

An essential event for all of us who work with BIM in the construction sector.

Digital Twin in the Industrial environment: A reality

Posted on by admin-paco
Gemelo digital

Digital transformation is unstoppable in all areas. Today, it is a need and also a reality to which the industry is gradually adapting to continue evolving towards Industry 4.0. In an increasingly digitized society, the emergen of new and disruptive technologies such as, especially artificial intelligence, big data or digital twins are promoting and speeding up this change.

Digital Twin, What is it?

These virtual replicas of real industrial devices or processes create “live” digital objects, which replay in real time any change produced in their physical twin, not only in their mechanical parameters, but also in their performance and future evolution.
However, both the digital twin, and the progress and implementation of similar technologies, for their application require the connection and integration of other tools or technologies such as the internet of things, artificial intelligence, machine learning for the automation of the learning and also big data in order to take advantage of t all the data that is obtained.

Without the proper processing of the obtained data, the digital twin cannot perform in its best way or bring all its benefits to the industry. In spite of everything, and although it seems somehow quite futuristic, many companies in the industrial sector are beting on the digital twin and are incorporating it into their production processes every day.
Actually this could be an option, but in a few years, the majority of productive and manufacturing companies may have to implement this type of technology or they will be out of ¨the competition¨.

  • Obtaining a protected and safe environment in where to experience future processes and projects.
  • Testing and scooping potential changes in new scenarios and approaches.
  • Preventive maintenance plan to avoid errors and interruptions in manufacturing processes.
  • Reducing margin of error and failures in operations and processes.
  • Result predictions and yeild improvements.
  • Optimize production parameters.
  • Reducing production costs of existing and future products.

Present and future

It is clear that not all the industry is already prepared to take up this challenge, there are still some elements that must be improved , especially those related to digitization and, above all, the complexity of storing and processing the big volume of data generated by a digital twin.
Ultimately, digital twins are, without any doubt, a disruptive technology in the simulation and analysis of industrial processes, capable of obtaining maximum benefits from the digital transformation of the plant or its processes, a real transformation, in which several companies are already involved in, and for sure that it will be intensified in the coming years.

In Acero Estudio we offer digital twin solutions, mainly focused to Engineering companies, Architects, Construction Companies, Manufacturers and Promoters. Further information

Topography Works with GPS and total station

Posted on by admin-paco

At Acero Estudio, we specialize in providing high-quality topography services using the latest technology, including GPS and total stations. Our focus is on delivering precise and reliable data for construction, engineering, and land development projects, ensuring accurate mapping and surveying of your land.

GPS in Topography: Precision and Efficiency

GPS (Global Positioning System) technology has revolutionized the field of topography. At Acero Estudio, we leverage high-precision GPS devices to gather accurate data on large and complex terrains. GPS allows us to quickly establish geodetic control points, ensuring consistent and reliable measurements across the project site.

The use of GPS in topographic surveying brings multiple advantages:

  • Efficiency: It significantly reduces the time needed to complete large-scale surveys.
  • Accuracy: GPS provides data with millimeter-level precision, ensuring high-quality results.
  • Versatility: GPS works in a variety of terrains, from open fields to rugged landscapes.

With GPS, we can efficiently conduct large-scale surveys, ensuring that your project is on a solid foundation right from the start.

Total Station: Accuracy in Detail

While GPS is ideal for large-scale surveys, total stations play a crucial role in capturing fine details and ensuring the highest level of accuracy for smaller or more intricate areas. A total station combines electronic distance measurement (EDM) and angular measurements to create highly accurate maps and layouts of construction sites, property boundaries, and other areas.

At Acero Estudio, we use the most advanced total stations to ensure:

  • Sub-millimeter precision: Ideal for boundary surveys, construction staking, and high-detail work.
  • Flexibility: Suitable for both short and long-range measurements.
  • Integration: Seamless integration with our GPS data for comprehensive mapping.

Using total stations allows us to ensure that every corner and boundary of your project site is accurately measured, preventing costly errors and delays during construction.

Combining GPS and Total Station for Optimal Results

The combination of GPS and total station technology allows us to deliver comprehensive topographic surveys tailored to the unique needs of each project. While GPS provides rapid, large-scale data collection, total stations ensure detailed and accurate measurements where high precision is needed. This hybrid approach ensures that every aspect of your project is thoroughly covered.

Why Choose Acero Estudio?

At Acero Estudio, we are dedicated to providing exceptional topographic services for a wide range of industries, including construction, civil engineering, and land development. Our team of experts has extensive experience in handling complex projects with the latest equipment and technology. By choosing Acero Estudio, you benefit from:
