3D Scan for Hybrid Project
This project involved scanning part of a ship bilge to aid in preliminary dimensioning of a hybrid driveline. The results were used for an initial blockout model.

Situation
Normally, this involves a lot of precise measurement on the ship to ensure that the system will fit as intended. With the help of 3D Scans this process can be greatly simplified.
By combining manual measurement of rough outlines with 3D scanned data it is possible to much more easily and quickly generate a representation of the situation and ensure the design will fit.
CAD Integration
From the scanned data, a (partial) mesh can be generated. Combined with the manual measurements, a situational sketch can be created.
The rough measurements are used to block out the available space, while specific areas of attention, in this case the propshaft bearing, are scanned and later imported into CAD software.
The final result is a much more accurate representation of relevant parts and constraints than would be possible with just manual measurements in the same timeframe.

Situation
EPS designs and builds hybrid and full electric drivelines for marine applications. For this specific project, a DaVinci 29 would have to be converted to a hybrid driveline setup.
