Reverse Engineering

COMPREHENSIVE REVERSE ENGINEERING FOR GAS TURBINE COMPONENTS
At YANA, our Reverse Engineering Division delivers fully integrated solutions for gas turbine components, combining advanced engineering methods, strict quality frameworks, and years of hands-on industry experience. Our step-by-step approach ensures accuracy, functionality, and reliability in every reverse-engineered part.

STEP 1: INITIAL RECEIPT, DISASSEMBLY & TECHNICAL ASSESSMENT
Each component or assembly is received, cataloged, and carefully disassembled by our inspection team. We perform detailed failure analysis, surface wear inspection, crack detection, and operational history reviews to establish the baseline condition and identify degradation mechanisms.

 STEP 2: HIGH-PRECISION DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS & CAD MODELING
Using state-of-the-art 3D scanning technologies and Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM), we extract exact geometrical data. These are transformed into fully parametric, high-fidelity 3D CAD models using platforms such as CATIA, NX, and SolidWorks—ready for further structural and performance evaluation.

STEP 3: ENGINEERING SIMULATIONS & FUNCTIONAL PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
The reconstructed models are subjected to multidisciplinary simulations, including:

  • Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for stress, deformation, and fatigue
  • Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for internal and external flow patterns
  • Thermal analysis for heat transfer and temperature distribution
  • Vibration and modal analysis for structural resonance prediction
  • Creep and life assessment for high-temperature operation

STEP 4: MATERIAL CHARACTERIZATION, METALLURGY & SURFACE COATINGS
Our materials engineering team conducts in-depth analysis of the component’s base material and coatings using:

  • Spectroscopy and SEM/EDS for chemical and microstructural evaluation
  • Hardness, tensile, and creep testing for mechanical performance
  • Coating thickness and bond strength analysis
    This ensures the correct replication or enhancement of materials and surface properties.

STEP 5: WELD ENGINEERING & JOINT ANALYSIS
For components with welds, joints, or brazed sections, our welding specialists perform detailed analysis on:

  • Heat-Affected Zones (HAZ)
  • Weld metallurgy and structural integrity
  • Applicable codes and recommended joining processes (e.g., TIG, EBW, diffusion bonding)

STEP 6: MANUFACTURING PROCESS DESIGN & TECHNICAL PLANNING
Based on all previous analyses, our design and manufacturing team prepares:

  • Machining plans and toolpath strategies
  • Tolerancing and surface finish specifications
  • Heat treatment schedules
  • Protective coating and final assembly procedures
    We integrate lean manufacturing principles and quality checkpoints at every phase.

STEP 7: TESTING, VALIDATION & QUALITY ASSURANCE
Every component is validated through a rigorous QA/QC regime, including:

  • Dimensional verification (CMM, laser scanners)
  • Non-Destructive Testing (UT, PT, RT, MT)
  • Destructive Testing (tensile, metallography, etc.)
  • Functional or bench testing under simulated service conditions

📏 STANDARDS & COMPLIANCE
All activities are executed under full compliance with internationally recognized standards:
ASTM, ASME, ISO 9001, VDA 6.3, MIL-STD-31000, and ASME Y14.5.

🛠️ PROVEN TRACK RECORD
YANA has successfully delivered complex reverse engineering projects across a wide range of gas turbines—including components such as blades, vanes, shrouds, combustors, and rotors—for OEMs like GE, Siemens, MHI, and Ansaldo
