Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to present an integrated design procedure for
plastic part development and manufacture. Reverse engineering (RE), reengineering (ReE) and mold design have been incorporated to infuse agile
characteristics in the proposed design and development process. The
integration of RE and ReE presented in this paper accelerate the design
process and provide information necessary for complete injection molding
process of plastic parts. The purpose is to create a new object geometrically
similar to the existing object. The new object must have better mechanical
properties and more favorable geometry from the standpoint of mold
ability. This paper also, describes a methodology for quality geometry check
of the manufactured part that is need for verified the used integrated
CAD/CAE technologies.
