Voltage Supply has built a strong reputation as an industry
leader in reverse-engineering, design enhancement and manufacturing
with exceptional quality and service. HVS’ success in this area
can be attributed to a continued commitment to utilizing new
materials and technologies to fuel the development of new products
and solutions to the electric industry’s needs.
The reverse-engineering process starts with a customer need
and sample component. We begin with a precision assessment and
thorough documentation of the component geometry and dimensional
information. Component geometry is measured el ectronically
using a Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM). The measurements
are downloaded into an integrated CAD/CAM system with cross-section
components integration capabilities. Exhaustive analysis and
testing of materials is then done to establish composition,
mechanical and electrical properties. Only materials
that are equal to or exceed OEM specifications are used.
Finally, an understanding of the form, fit, function and typical
failure modes are reviewed with the customer to gain a thorough
understanding of how the component is used prior to the output
of drawings to be used in manufacturing the part.
Shown here is an in-tank load tap changer originally manufactured 
by Mitsubishi® in Japan. The project consisted of reverse-engineering
and manufacturing of the complete diverter switch and resistor
assembly. Reverse engineering and design work consumed over
600 man-hours including over 400 man-hours of engineering time.
