PRECAST CONCRETE ELEMENTS




Modern precast concrete production places the highest demands on dimensional accuracy, process reliability and repeatability. Especially for tunnel segments, even one tenth of a millimetre can determine fit accuracy, load-bearing capacity and the functional reliability of the entire tunnel lining system.

 

With our Mobile 3D Metrology systems, we inspect tunnel segments, moulds and complex precast concrete elements directly in production. Laser tracking and scanning systems with accuracy in the hundredth-millimetre range enable full-surface, precise and immediately evaluable deviation analysis. We handle the entire measurement process from data acquisition to decision-ready evaluation. Corrections can be implemented immediately.

 

This provides:

  • immediate transparency regarding form and positional tolerances
  • direct adjustment of moulds on site
  • no waiting for service interventions by mould manufacturers
  • no production downtime
  • no lost production shifts

Example measurement results from practice

Our measurement reports provide immediately usable information on component geometry, dimensional accuracy and process stability. The following example evaluations show typical graphical and technical result visualisations from real production projects.

Example evaluation – segment mould and tunnel segment

Experience that creates measurable reliability

Our measurements are fast, reproducible and fully documented, including graphical evaluations, colour deviation maps and technical inspection reports. We support precast plants from initial inspection through series production to final acceptance.

 

With experience from measuring more than 100,000 tunnel segments and extensive practical work with mould systems from companies including Herrenknecht and CBE, we ensure that every segment fits precisely into the ring and that production processes remain permanently stable.

 

The result:

  • stable production processes
  • reduced rework
  • reliable compliance with tolerance requirements
  • documented quality for clients and project stakeholders
