Setting the scene

Founded in 1959 in Oakville, Ontario, as Canadian Vac-Hyd Processing Ltd, VAC AERO International Inc. has established itself as a world leader in heat treatment, brazing and vacuum furnace manufacturing. With over 200 employees spread across four factories, the company is experiencing significant growth and was looking to equip itself better to manage and optimize its production spaces.

They contacted pointSpace to provide detailed and up-to-date information about their factory in Dorval for their expansion and management objectives.

Proposed solutions

Full-color, high-resolution 3D space scan
2D drawings of the building and its production floor, including the footprint of all machinery and equipment.
AutoCAD and PDF format.
3D plans as built from space: architecture, structure and ground machinery.
Revit and Inventor formats.

Gains

Enable simulations of different factory layouts for 5S projects and production line optimization.

Better overall management of the plant and its components
Multiple use of plans. For example, for possible expansion projects.
