A client requested the reverse engineering of an impeller. No drawings
or tooling existed for this product and the client needed to manufacture
this impeller locally.
The metal casting was scanned. The part was scanned using the co-ordinate
measurement machine. 3D co-ordinate points were transferred and converted
into splines. Data smoothing and manipulation were performed by the
front end CAD system and exported to the CAD system. A surface model
was produced utilizing advances surface modeling techniques.
3D CAD surface model was exported and transferred. 2D manufacturing
drawings were made of the impeller according to SABS 0111 specification.
