Forging new generations of engineers
REVERSE ENGINEERING
REVERSE ENGINEERING IS A PROCESS
OF REDESIGNING AN EXISTING
PRODUCT TO IMPROVE AND BROADEN
ITS FUNCTION, ADD QUALITY AND TO
INCREASE ITS USEFUL LIFE. ALSO AN
IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL GOAL IS TO
REDUCE MANUFACTURING COSTS OF
THE NEW PRODUCT MAKING IT
COMPETIVE IN THE MARKET PLACE.
REVERSE ENGINEERING STEPS
• STUDY HOW THE PRODUCT WORKS AND LOOK FOR WAYS TO
IMPROVE OR EXPAND ITS FUNCTIONS.
• DISASSEMBLE AND INSPECT THE PARTS OF THE PRODUCT
STUDYING WAYS TO IMPROVE AND SIMPLIFY THESE PARTS AND
ITS OVERALL DESIGN.
• STUDY HOW THE QUALITY AND LIFE OF THE PRODUCT MIGHT BE
IMPROVED.
• STUDY METHODS OF HOW THE COSTS OF MANUFACTURING THE
PRODUCT MIGHT BE REDUCED APPLING NEW AVAILABLE
TECHNOLOGIES AND MATERIALS.
• WILL PRODUCING THIS PRODUCT BE COMPECTIVE AND
PROFITABLE IF IT IS MARKETED.`
PROJECT REQUIREMENTS
• SELECT A MACHINE WITH A MINIMUM OF 8 PARTS TO BE
DISSAMBLED IN A REVERSE ENGINEERING PROJECT STUDY.
• EACH PART HAS TO BE CLEANED, IDENTIFIED, NUMBERED
AND PLACED ON A DISPLAY BOARD SHOWING THE ASSEMBLY
ORDER
• A TYPED CHART SHOWING EACH PARTS NUMBER AND NAME
IS TO BE ATTACHED TO THE DISPLAY BOARD TO IDENTIFY
ALL PARTS.
• A TYPED REPORT EXPLAING WHAT EACH PART DOES IN
HELPING THE MACHINE TO WORK AND AN EXPLANATION OF
HOW THE MACHINE FUNCTIONS WILL HANG FROM THE
DISPLAY BOARD BY A HOOK.
PROJECT REQUIREMENTS
• AN EXPLANATION OF A SELECTED PART THAT YOU
WOULD REDESIGN TO IMPROVE THE FUNCTION OF
THE MACHINE OR TO MAKE IT WORK BETTER IS
INCLUDED IN THE REPORT.
• A DETAILED SET OF DRAWINGS WITH A CAD SOLID
MODEL OF THE REENGINEERED PART, A LIST OF
STEPS AND PROCEDURES THAT WILL BE REQUIRED
TO MAKE THE NEW PART AND A CAD SOLID ANIMATED
ASSEMBLY MODEL OF THE MACHINE.
• A PRESENTATION OF YOUR FINDINGS SHOWING YOUR
DISPLAY DISASSEMBLY, IDENTIFICATION AND
EXPLANATION OF PARTS, THE REDESIGNED PART
DRAWINGS WITH A MODEL AND A PRESENTATION OF
HOW THE NEW REDESIGNED PART IMPROVES THE
MACHINE.
