NORELCO TECHNOLOGY provides Hardware Reverse Engineering services for clients who need replacement parts but lack the original technical drawings. This process demands a high level of technical expertise and precision.
Reverse engineering is particularly valuable when original components are damaged, obsolete, or too costly to replace. Through this method, parts can be accurately reproduced or even improved. It involves replicating existing components, restoring damaged ones, or redesigning parts for better performance. One of the key advantages of reverse engineering is the ability to obtain immediate, precise results that meet functional requirements.
Key considerations when performing reverse engineering:
Original Component: Having the original part enables accurate dimensioning—especially for high-precision items. Multiple units are often measured and compared to achieve average dimensions for replication.
Material Analysis: When the original material is unknown or uncommon, samples are sent to labs for testing to identify the best match.
Tolerance Specifications: Tolerances determine the allowable variation from specified dimensions and ensure the usability of the final product.
Precision: High accuracy is essential to ensure the part functions as intended.
Function Insight: Understanding the role of the part helps ensure design accuracy and performance.
Fabrication Method: After selecting suitable materials, the part undergoes several manufacturing stages, including final treatments and finishing.
