Energy

Wind Turbines

Typical Usage

A typical use of the 3d scanning technology for energy is for the measurement and analysis of turbine blades. Traditionally measured by CMM, the process was slow, awkward, and not comprehensive. As a result of white light/blue light 3d scanning technology, millions of measurement points in x,y, and z directions are measured on the blade within a few seconds. This collected point cloud data is then compared to the original design’s CAD model to analyze existing manufacturing or functional issues.

Blue Light 3D Scanning

With our blue light 3d scanners, we have reverse engineered extremely complex turbines ( buckets), as well as other related items. Many damaged parts of a power generation unit have been effectively 3D scanned, and the model was then used to replace the broken part.

  • Create a 3D map/model of the existing power generation facility.
  • Quick and affordable measurement, means less downtime.
  • Easily repair, troubleshoot, and analyze equipment for dimensional issues.
  • White light scanning solves complex turbine measurement issues.
  • Reverse engineer damaged parts, and make new parts.

Energy 3D Scanning

Long-range 3D scanner Surphaser has been used to accurately map 3D models of large structures. For example, power generation plants, dams, electrical substations, giant steam turbine engines, gas pipelines, transmission lines, windmills, and more. Measuring these facilities has become easier and more affordable than before.

WOW! What a great experience. Applications 3D provided us with the best looking scans I've ever seen. Fast, friendly and affordable. I can't say enough good things. Thanks again Raminder!!

Raminder did a fantastic job scanning some parts for me. VERY reasonable pricing for the quality of scan provided and the turn around time was ridiculously fast. 10/10 would recommend and will be using again!

The Applications 3D team is a pleasure to work with. They have provided our organization with 3D scanning, reverse engineering, and CAD model creation services. The pricing is great and they have quick turn around times.

I found Applications 3D online, wanting to get an item scanned accurately. Couldn't have been happier with their services. They were fast, great communications, and the end result was excellent. I will use them again in the future. This job was for an individual project and they did not hesitate with their services. It was also at a lower cost than I could find anywhere in my state. Highly recommend their services. Thank You Raminder-Applications 3D

Very professional and in depth and detailed with his work. You might find a cheaper source but not a better one.

I approached Applications 3D with an existing 3D scan file that I didn’t know what to do with. After speaking with Raminder over the phone, we scheduled an appointment same day to review the file. He looked at my file, and gave me a quote for his service - to produce a Step file that could be used to CNC a master mold from the shape that I had scanned. He was finished with the design in 1 week, but there was a slight issue which I brought to his attention, and he immediately worked on creating a solution, which was resolved by the end of that same day!! I honestly couldn’t be more happy with the result, and very much look forward to working together with Raminder & his company again for more 3D modeling work.
