In manufacturing, systems integrators are under constant pressure to design, install, and optimize complex systems with zero margin for error. Accurate site data is the foundation of every successful integration project—but capturing that data often comes with challenges: limited access, tight deadlines, and the need to keep production running.
The Leica BLK ARC backpack solution changes the game, giving integrators a fast, mobile, and precise way to capture as-built conditions without disrupting operations.
Mobility Without Compromise
Weighing just 690 grams, the BLK ARC laser scanning module is lightweight enough to be worn comfortably for extended periods. In its backpack configuration, operators can walk through a facility—navigating tight aisles, staircases, and congested production areas—while collecting high-quality point cloud data on the move. No more stopping for lengthy scanner setups or working around rigid tripod positions.
Speed That Keeps Production Moving
The BLK ARC’s advanced GrandSLAM technology (LiDAR SLAM + Visual SLAM + IMU) ensures every step is mapped accurately, even while in motion. This allows scanning at speeds up to 6–10× faster than traditional terrestrial methods, enabling integrators to cover expansive manufacturing floors in minutes instead of hours. The result: comprehensive 3D datasets gathered without shutting down production lines or disrupting workflows.
Safer and Smarter Scanning
Manufacturing environments often present hazards—from moving equipment and elevated platforms to restricted spaces. The BLK ARC backpack lets operators capture detailed 3D data from the ground, avoiding the need for ladders, lifts, or scaffolding. By scanning while walking safely through active areas, integrators can minimize risk to personnel while still collecting the data needed for precise planning and integration.
Data You Can Trust for Confident Integration
From digital twin creation to clash detection and precise equipment placement, the BLK ARC backpack solution delivers the accuracy needed to plan with certainty. Its detailed, fully aligned point clouds give systems integrators the confidence to:
-
Identify potential layout conflicts before installation
-
Validate designs against as-built conditions
-
Reduce costly rework and delays
Why It’s a Competitive Advantage
The manufacturing world moves fast, and so should your reality capture. The Leica BLK ARC backpack solution combines speed, flexibility, precision, and safety in a portable package—helping systems integrators capture critical data quickly, smartly, and accurately.
Bottom line: With the BLK ARC on your back, you’re not just collecting data—you’re building the foundation for flawless and safe manufacturing integration projects.
