Long-range, mobile and wireless handheld 3D scanners for refineries, energy and process plants, from as-built surveys and digital twins to custom repair parts.
Site size, access and accuracy decide it. Most plant teams combine a site-scale scanner with Leo for components.
Pipe racks, pump rooms, production lines and factory floors for retrofit design
Artec Ray II59 450 €
Refineries, offshore platforms, flare stacks, confined spaces and stockpiles
Artec Jet38 500 €
Also consider Artec Twins — processes and merges Jet, Ray II and Leo data
Leaking valves, offset piping, flanges, ductwork and pumps for custom clamps
Artec Leo34 800 €
Capture on site, then merge, analyze and hand off in Artec Twins or Artec Studio.
Walk, drive or fly the plant with Jet, even in dark or GPS-denied areas, and set up Ray II where retrofit design needs the highest accuracy.
Scan valves, flanges and offset pipework with Leo, contact-free and wirelessly, while lines stay in service.
Artec Twins fuses Jet, Ray II and Leo data into one model for clearance checks, volumes, change detection and measurement.
Design repair clamps and retrofit parts on the scan in Artec Studio, or export point clouds and meshes for plant design and BIM.
Piping systems, a regulating station, a workshop, power lines and a heavy machine: complex plant geometry captured for retrofit and maintenance.
One hour with Ray II from 26 positions, then 30 minutes with Leo for the tight spots: valves, flanges and fittings.
<45min
Waste piles inside a GPS-denied, poorly lit plant were mapped with Jet for volume measurement, 3 times faster than tripod scanning. The interior was flown by drone in 15 minutes.

Damaged refinery piping is scanned with Leo in hot, cramped spaces while lines stay online. About 1 m² of piping takes under an hour instead of 5–6 hours of sketching.
Scanned withArtec Leo
In oil and gas, one team scanned leaking refinery pipework with Leo in 15–20 minutes while the plant kept running, and designed custom repair clamps up to 18 times faster than from hand sketches. Jet maps flare stacks and confined spaces, and its cage and drone modes reach areas people should not enter.
In power generation and heavy industry, the same workflow documents pump rooms, pipe racks and production lines for retrofit design, and Jet’s ±5 mm change detection shows what moved between surveys. More than 400 replacement duct sections for a steel mill were made from Leo scans with zero measurement errors.
Ray II for precise as-built data of units, pipe racks and floors, at 1.9 mm accuracy at 10 m. Jet for mapping a whole site fast, including dark, confined or GPS-denied areas. Leo for close-up capture of valves, flanges and pipework.
Yes. Leo is contact-free and wireless, and users scan leaking pipework at live refineries without a shutdown. Ray II’s Double Scan removes moving objects such as passers-by.
Yes. Jet’s active laser needs no ambient light, SLAM positioning works without GPS, and the cage and drone modes reach vertical shafts, voids and areas people should not enter. It is rated IP65.
Ray II measures with 1.9 mm accuracy at 10 m. Jet reaches ±10 mm indoors and underground, ±15 mm in general environments and ±5 mm for change detection. Leo reaches up to 0.1 mm on components.
Artec Twins processes Jet data and merges it with Ray II and Leo scans into one digital twin for clearance checks, measurement and change detection. Artec Studio handles Ray II and Leo scans and design work on components. Both come as a yearly plan or a lifetime license.
Jet exports LAS, LAZ, PLY and E57 point clouds, Artec Twins adds DXF and scan to BIM export, and Artec Studio exports meshes plus STEP, IGES or X_T.
Yes. Jet maps refineries, offshore platforms and flare stacks handheld, on a backpack or by drone, and is rated IP65. Ray II is IP54-rated with hot-swappable batteries, and Leo is fully wireless for close-up work on components.
Yes. Artec Twins measures volumes, cross-sections and profiles. Jet mapped waste piles inside a poorly lit, GPS-denied facility for volume measurement and compliance in under 45 minutes, three times faster than tripod scanning.
Yes. Jet surveys bridges, tunnels and dams with less scaffolding and rope access, and Ray II checks bridges, floodwalls and railways for deformation and damage, with data ready for analysis the same day.
