Clear visibility. Better planning. Fewer site visits.
EC2XR creates accurate, interactive 3D tours/Digital Twins for manufacturing sites, warehouses, engineering facilities and construction projects. These digital walkthroughs give teams a precise, up-to-date view of the environment — ideal for planning, training, auditing and stakeholder communication.
We use a blend of technologies, including Matterport, LiDAR scanning and 360° imaging, selecting the right approach for the layout, scale and required level of detail.
Why Manufacturing Teams Use 3D Tours
- Rapid familiarisation for staff, contractors and auditors
A digital walkthrough gives new personnel a clear understanding of routes, access points, hazards and workflows before they step on site. Reduces time spent escorting visitors and improves safety briefings.
- Reduced site visits
Send a link instead of arranging a visit. Ideal for remote stakeholders, design teams, insurers, equipment suppliers and compliance partners. Fewer interruptions to production and a quiet ESG gain.
- Accurate documentation of plant, equipment and layouts
Capture the current state of your facility for maintenance planning, audits, insurance, or change management. A visual record helps avoid disputes and accelerates decision-making.
- Integration with technical workflows
For engineering and design teams, we can supply:
- E57 point clouds – accurate geometry for CAD, BIM and clash detection
- OBJ models – suitable for visualisation, design and equipment planning
- MatterPak bundles – for architects and surveyors needing structured assets
These outputs provide a reliable starting point for upgrades, expansions or refits.
- Training and onboarding
Use the tour to demonstrate safe routes, emergency access, isolation points, or standard operating layouts. Embedding video, images and documentation keeps training consistent across teams and shifts.
Why Contractors & Construction Teams Use 3D Tours
- Clear communication with clients and project teams
A 3D tour gives everyone a shared, accurate visual reference. Misunderstandings drop; decisions speed up.
- As-built documentation and progress capture
Record work at key stages — ideal for tracking progress, verifying installation, and supporting claims, variations or handover packs.
- Reduced risk for remote stakeholders
Clients, designers, QS teams and consultants can inspect the site without travelling, cutting delays and keeping the project moving.
- Seamless integration with design tools
E57/OBJ outputs slot into BIM models, coordination platforms and planning software, making it easy to review deviations, check clearances and plan the next stage.
Simple, Non-Disruptive Process
Scan → Build → Review → Share
Most industrial and construction sites can be scanned in a single visit without halting operations.
