| Reverse
Engineering : Examples
Our reverse engineering team has executed
several reverse engineering projects for plastics, metal &
sheet metal components. A few examples are:
Tail
light assembly for a motor cycle:
Complete tail light assembly was required for the new model of
a two wheeler. Reverse engineering of a similar assembly was done
to create the CAD model. The surface data of the component was
captured using a CMM and the modeling was created. All the components
of the assembly were modeled separately and then modified as per
the client's requirement. The modified components were then assembled
and checked for fitment and interferences.
Dashboard
of a tractor:
The dashboard of a tractor was scanned by a white light scanner,
using multiple exposures. Point cloud data, was aligned &.
the CAD model was then created using surfacing software.
Fenders
of a car:
A white light scanner was used to capture the point cloud data
for the fenders of a car. Accuracy of the component; dimensional
accuracy of the fenders were checked by overlaying the CAD model
created by reverse engineering on the original CAD data of the
component. Modeling was done using surfacing software.
Impeller
of a radiator cooling fan:
Our engineers converted the sheet metal impeller of a radiator
cooling fan to plastic. Surface data of the sheet metal impeller
was captured using a white light scanner creating the CAD model.
Fine-tuning was done on the reverse engineered CAD model to design
the plastic impeller that would give the same results as the original
sheet metal impeller.
