    This document provides an overview of the process of reverse engineering. It discusses that reverse engineering involves taking apart a product to understand how it works and was developed. The key steps outlined are: 1) identifying the purpose, 2) developing a hypothesis of how the product functions, 3) disassembling the product carefully while taking notes and photos, 4) analyzing the product's form, structure, materials, and manufacturing methods, 5) preparing a report documenting the findings, and 6) potentially redesigning the product based on what was learned. Reverse engineering is important for research, quality improvement, and developing replacement parts or documentation when the original is unavailable.

    CHAPTER - 6

    REVERSE ENGINEERING
    encompasses

    any activity that is done to determine how a product works, to learn the ideas and technology that were used in developing that product.

    REVERSE ENGINEERING ?

    REVERSE ENGINEERING

    Important step in the Design Process

    REVERSE ENGINEERING
    Decreases
    Develop Create

    Product Waste

    replacement parts for old equipment

    detailed documentation to manufacture old products for which documentation is not available
    Precision measurements are taken CAD programs used to generate solid models

    Reverse Engineering and Patents

    Reasons for REVERSE ENGINEERING


    Research similar products to discover ideas for more competitive products

    Test a product to determine cause of failure

    Continuous product improvement

    Create documentation for components lacking original documentation

    Reasons for REVERSE ENGINEERING


    Learn about structure, function, manufacturing, and aesthetics

    Design replacement parts for products no longer in production

    Develop CAD and CNC data to enhance manufacturing processes

    REVERSE ENGINEERING STEP BY STEP


    1.Identify the Purpose 6.Redesign

    2.Develop a hypothesis

    5.Prepare the Report

    3.Disassemble

    4.Analyze the Elements

    1. Identify the Purpose

    Determine Record

    what needs to be learned

    purpose in engineers notebook

    2. Develop a Hypothesis
    Hypothesis

    Statement that suggests a possible, unproven answer to a question


    Describe
    Write

    hypothesis of product function

    down questions and possible answers

    3. Disassembly
    Disassembly
    Carefully Must

    process called teardown

    disassemble to uncover internal components and mechanisms be done in organized fashion


    Keep careful notes Organize parts with labels and plastic bags Take photos during the process

    4. Analyze the Elements


    Attempt
    Four

    to answer the questions originally posed


    types of analysis
    Functional Structural Materials Manufacturing

    5. Functional Analysis
    Discover
    Take

    how the product works

    measurements or perform tests on components


    Tools: micrometers and calipers

    6. Structural Analysis
    Determine
    Determine

    purpose of each part


    how parts interact with each

    other
    Finite

    Element Analysis

    Used to learn more about structural qualities

    7. Materials Analysis
    Identify
    Useful

    material by its common name

    to know what the manufacturing process is

    Material

    properties may be determined by

    testing
    Molded

    9. Prepare the Report


    Communicate

    findings in a clear and concise

    manner
    Confirm

    purpose of the reverse engineering has been addressed

    10. Product Redesign
