Reverse engineering process application in single item production

This paper presents reverse engineering approach in single item production. Conventional forward engineering for single item production is often too expensive and does not complete the time requirements. Therefore this approach has a negative effect on the economy of production. In order to solve this problem, manufacturing industry is forced to implement a reverse engineering approach due to its significant advances and practical application in this field. Reverse engineering process in single item production, presented in this paper, involves the use of 3D scanner as a device to capture and digitize the data from the existing object. Measurement data are acquired by 3D stereo- photogrammetric scanning. Processing the measurement data by CATIA V5 software a CAD model was created. The analysis and modifications of design are preformed on that CAD model. A physical prototype is then made using 3D printing technology, according to the CAD model for validation of the same. Due to the improvement of design specific customer requirements are met, and efficient single item production is achieved.
