  3D Laser Scanning for Mining Haul Trucks: Supporting Repairs, Reverse Engineering and Asset-Life Extension Mining haul trucks operate under severe mechanical and environmental conditions. Repeated loading, impact, abrasion, vibration, structural fatigue and previous repairs can gradually alter the geometry and condition of a truck body, chassis and associated equipment. Despite this, engineering and maintenance teams are often required to plan repairs, modifications or component replacements using incomplete drawings, outdated information or manual measurements collected under time pressure. 3D laser scanning provides a practical method of capturing the existing geometry of a mining haul truck before engineering work begins. Hamilton By Design uses engineering-grade 3D laser scanning to assist mining companies, maintenance teams, repair contractors, fabricators and equipment suppliers with accurate existing-condition data for inspection, reverse engineering, refurbishment and...
