Frequently Asked Questions.
General
What does CLEAVIS do?
CLEAVIS is an industrial visualization studio specializing in the visualization of complex industrial systems.
We transform engineering documentation, technical plans, production layouts, and industrial data into clear, high-end 3D visualizations, animations, and visual communication systems.
Our work covers factories, production lines, manufacturing processes, infrastructure, equipment, and connected industrial ecosystems.
Who do you work with?
We work with companies and teams involved in industrial development and production, including manufacturers, engineering companies, industrial developers, technology companies, infrastructure companies, architects, and project teams.
We also work with companies preparing projects for investors, stakeholders, partners, or public presentations.
Can you work with international clients?
Yes.
CLEAVIS works with clients internationally and can collaborate remotely with engineering, management, design, and project teams across different countries and time zones.
Projects & Services
What types of projects can CLEAVIS visualize?
Our main areas include:
- Factory visualization
- Production line visualization
- Manufacturing process visualization
- Industrial facility visualization
- Infrastructure visualization
- Industrial equipment visualization
- Process and material-flow visualization
- Connected industrial systems
- Cinematic 3D animation
- Project presentation visuals
If your project involves a complex physical or industrial system, contact us and we can evaluate the best visualization approach.
Can you create a 3D model from engineering documentation?
Yes.
We can build the required 3D environment from available engineering and project documentation.
Depending on the project, this may include CAD drawings, technical plans, P&IDs, layouts, spreadsheets, reference images, equipment specifications, and other project information.
Do you need complete engineering documentation?
Not necessarily.
The more complete the documentation, the more accurately and efficiently we can build the visualization. However, we can review the available information during the discovery stage and identify what is missing before production begins.
Can you visualize an entire factory and its production process?
Yes.
This is one of our core capabilities.
We can visualize the facility itself together with machinery, production areas, material flow, process stages, infrastructure, and the relationship between different parts of the system.
Can you visualize processes, not just buildings?
Yes.
CLEAVIS focuses on systems rather than isolated objects.
We can visualize how materials, products, equipment, people, data, and processes move through an industrial environment.
Process
How does a CLEAVIS project work?
Our process generally follows five stages:
- 01DiscoveryWe understand the industrial system, engineering information, objectives, and target audience.
- 02StrategyWe define what needs to be communicated and determine the appropriate visual approach.
- 03DevelopmentWe build the 3D environment, equipment, production systems, and required assets.
- 04VisualizationWe develop the final cinematic visuals, animation, lighting, camera work, and rendering.
- 05DeliveryWe prepare the final presentation-ready assets in the agreed formats.
How do we start a project?
Simply send us a message through the contact form or email us at contact@cleavis.com.
Tell us briefly about your project, what you need to visualize, and what information you already have.
We will review the project and respond within 48 hours.
How long does a project take?
Project timelines depend on the scale and complexity of the system being visualized.
A small visualization and a complete industrial facility with multiple production processes require very different production schedules.
After reviewing the project scope and available documentation, we can provide a more accurate timeline.
Can we make changes during the project?
Yes.
The project workflow includes review stages where visual direction and developed elements can be evaluated before final delivery.
The exact number and scope of revision rounds are agreed upon for each project.
Technical
What information should we provide?
Useful project information can include:
- CAD drawings
- Site plans
- Production layouts
- P&IDs
- Engineering diagrams
- Equipment specifications
- Technical documentation
- Spreadsheets
- Reference photographs
- Existing 3D models
- Process descriptions
- Brand guidelines
You do not need to have everything before contacting us. We can determine the required information during the discovery stage.
Can you work with existing 3D models?
Yes.
If suitable 3D models already exist, we can evaluate them and determine whether they can be incorporated into the project.
What do you deliver?
Depending on the project, deliverables can include high-resolution still images, cinematic animation, process visualization, presentation assets, and other agreed visual materials.
The final deliverables and formats are defined during project planning.
Can you create visuals for investor presentations?
Yes.
Industrial visualization can be used to communicate the scale, structure, capabilities, process, and strategic value of a project to investors, management teams, partners, and other stakeholders.
We can structure the visualization around the specific communication objective of the presentation.
Confidentiality
Can you work under NDA?
Yes.
We understand that industrial projects often contain sensitive engineering, commercial, and strategic information.
NDA and confidentiality requirements can be discussed before project information is shared.
Are client projects published on your website?
Only where permitted.
Some of our work is confidential and cannot be publicly displayed. Where a project is covered by confidentiality restrictions, we respect those restrictions.
Pricing
How much does a CLEAVIS project cost?
There is no single fixed price because industrial visualization projects can vary significantly in scale and complexity.
Pricing depends on factors such as:
- Project scope
- Engineering complexity
- Number of environments
- Number of machines or systems
- Animation requirements
- Level of detail
- Number of deliverables
- Timeline
- Required revisions
After reviewing your project, we can define the scope and prepare a project-specific quotation.
Can you provide a project estimate before starting?
Yes.
Send us your available project information and describe what you want to achieve.
We will review the scope and discuss the appropriate production approach before preparing a quotation.
Working With CLEAVIS
Do you work with agencies or other studios?
Yes.
CLEAVIS can work directly with project owners or as part of a larger team involving engineering companies, architects, agencies, consultants, and other specialists.
Can you handle large and complex projects?
Yes.
Our workflow is designed around complex industrial systems rather than simple standalone renders.
For larger projects, the scope can be structured into phases, environments, production systems, and deliverables.
Where is CLEAVIS located?
CLEAVIS is based in Ashgabat and works globally.
How do we start?
Tell us what you are building, what needs to be communicated, and what information you already have.
We'll take it from there.
