Reverse Engineering is the process of analyzing an existing product or component to understand its design, structure, and functionality. It involves capturing the physical object’s shape and dimensions—often using 3D scanners, CMM machines, or CAD modeling tools—and then recreating its digital model for study, improvement, or reproduction.
This technology plays a key role in industries such as automotive, aerospace, manufacturing, and product design, where old or damaged parts need to be redesigned or upgraded without original design data. Reverse engineering helps engineers improve product performance, optimize designs, and reduce development costs.
Through reverse engineering, companies can also study competitor products, ensure quality control, and support innovation by integrating modern design methods with existing products.
At VTech, students get practical training on the latest reverse engineering tools and techniques, including 3D scanning, data processing, and CAD modeling. This hands-on learning approach helps them understand how to convert physical parts into accurate digital models—preparing them for real-world industrial applications.
