Reverse Engineering
is the process of taking an existing product or part and modifying it for a superior end result. Some practical reasons for this include:
- You have a historical part but no design CAD is available
- Designing a new product that requires a perfect fit to function
- Incorporating changes from a modified part that works better
- Replacing individual, unknown parts in an expensive assembly
- Reducing or simplifying assemblies through part elimination
Combining premier hardwares and softwares, we can reproduce just about anything. Some examples of work include complex assemblies like optical lens housings, process critical tooling rework, and entire engine blocks. The endmill on showcase was a part replacement procedure. The client did not have historical documentation for the tool and, instead, chose to recreate it before it wore or broke.
Scan to CAD Workflow
> Scan object and capture all necessary data
>> Repair data and create coordinate system
>>> Build geometric surfaces, export as .step
>>>> Compare deviation of model back to scan file
