DBS Transform

Reverse engineering service using structured-light 3D scanning to convert third-party gearboxes into DBS gearboxes with new rotating components.

Description

DBS Transform is a reverse engineering service that uses structured-light 3D scanners to capture the data needed to design a new drivetrain, in many cases within a scheduled shutdown window of less than 10 hours. The gearbox goes back into operation while new rotating components are designed and manufactured.

Key features

  • Structured-light 3D scanning of the existing gearbox
  • Data capture typically within a shutdown window of less than 10 hours
  • Transformation completed at a DBS service centre or on site
  • Gearcase inspected and refurbished, so the mounting interface stays identical to the original

Applications

Converting third-party or obsolete gearboxes into DBS gearboxes without changing foundations or interfaces.

Specifications

Data capture windowless than 10 hours
