Semiconductor facilities are in a constant state of change–continually retooling to keep pace with innovation and remain relevant. Yet, this rapid and steady rate of change often comes with a price: tool downtime, schedule delays, production delays, and rework issues. When schedule, production, and safety are mission critical, teams have to think beyond traditional construction methods. This is where digital […]

Over the last few years in the architecture community, there’s been greater adoption of 3d scanning technology to create accurate as-builts and existing condition models. And certainly, the events of 2020 prompted a significant tailwind for this as many suddenly had to reconsider how site and structure information was gathered and shared. Whether it was out of sudden necessity or […]
Architects are increasingly adopting 3d scanning technology to create as-builts and existing conditions models, and we certainly saw an uptick of its use in 2020 that has carried forward to the present.
