REVERSE ENGINEERING SOLUTIONS IN UAE
Reverse engineering solutions using 3D scanning is necessary where original design documentation is incomplete, missing, or outdated. We capture detailed geometry of complex structures, ship hull forms, and machinery spaces in ships, vessels, and offshore rigs to create 3D CAD models and engineering as-built drawings. Our reverse engineering services help ship owners, rig owners, shipyards, and ship repair companies with legacy vessel creation, marine equipment replication, and digital twin creation for environmental and life cycle management. We provide reverse engineering services for legacy vessel restoration and documentation, reproduction of obsolete or damaged components, hull form analysis for CFD or hydrodynamic studies, and equipment modernization or remanufacturing.
When original drawings and designs are missed out on, our reverse engineering solutions offer a reliable workflow of terrestrial and handheld 3D scanning and generate CAD models, surface models, and 3D documentation. By converting 3D scan point clouds into intelligent 3D models, we help naval architects to optimize maintenance and repair plans with the highest level of accuracy and operational efficiency.
REVERSE ENGINEERING OFFSHORE ASSETS IN UAE
Our team has got used to using 3D scanning data to create or validate CAD (Computer Aided Design) information. If there is no technical data, we can either develop CAD from scratch or confirm the CAD information that is already available. Only the original documentation that has aged over time or, of course, the numerous low-definition photocopy operations provide a clear description of the design of many older assets. The most precise and efficient way to replace the original documentation with reference to the hardware that is already in place is through 3D scanning. The process of replicating an object for which there is no production information is generally referred to as reverse engineering. Applications of reverse engineering of offshore assets and marine equipment are
- Component Reproduction: 3D scanning of legacy or damaged mechanical parts, including propellers, valves, and brackets, and creating CAD models for reproduction and eliminating the need for original design drawings.
- Hull Form Analysis: 3D scan survey or digital capture of hull geometry for CFD analysis or design validation. Reverse engineers and naval architects provide hull shapes for modifications or regulatory submissions.
- Documentation of Legacy Vessels: Digitize vessels without existing or accurate drawings and develop 3D models for future retrofits, ship design, maintenance, or support conversion projects.
- Structural Integrity Assessment: 3D Scan and compare current structure to original design specs by identifying deformations, corrosion loss, or misalignments for maintenance plan and classification compliance.
