CASE STUDIES

We have successfully completed many unique and challenging projects for our clients over the years. Featured below are a small sample of some of our projects which we would like to share with you

REVERSE ENGINEERING OF STEAM TURBINES

In 2006 3D SPATIAL  was contracted by turbine manufacturer Sulzer Hickham and Rotating equipment specialists ROTEQ Australia to capture the as-built geometry of a 90MW steam turbine that was nearing the end of its service life. During the couse of a week, the entire turbine including the Casing, Diaphragms, Blade Profiles and turbine sections were captured in the highest detail to provide CAD models for production of a replacement turbine by Sulzer Hickham in the United States.
