Course detail

Reverse Engineering and Rapid Prototyping

FSI-ZRIAcad. year: 2011/2012

Students will inform to basics princips of Rapid Prototyping and Reverse Engineering and the using this methods for technical work. During the practice the students will able to build up their 3D model by FDM Rapid Prototyping and digitize produce part by optical measurement systems and consequently reconstruct digitize date to CAD model.
