A Hexagon Case Study
Tecnimex do Brasil, a provider of portable 3D metrology services in Latin America, required a highly precise and portable measuring system. Their challenge was to perform rigorous dimensional control for the assembly of complex metal roofing structures on major stadiums for the 2014 FIFA World Cup within very tight tolerances and short timelines. They turned to vendor Hexagon for its Leica Absolute Tracker AT401 system.
Hexagon's solution provided the extreme portability, high precision, and long measuring range needed. The Leica Absolute Tracker AT401 was used to ensure all parts pre-assembled off-site were a perfect fit during final stadium installation, and it rigorously inspected the overall compression ring. This enabled the successful and efficient construction of stadiums like Maracanã and Arena Amazonia, giving Tecnimex do Brasil the agility and reliability to serve its customers effectively.
