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.

4
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.

5
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.

6
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.
