We provide easy-to-understand information on various technical topics, including reverse engineering of equipment and automated machine parts.
Introduction Reverse engineering often involves requests to recreate parts from older machinery that are no longer supported. However, many older machines prioritize production capacity and do not meet modern safety standards, and the machines are problematic…

Introduction When older machinery is beyond repair, we receive inquiries about reverse engineering. While we receive inquiries about a wide variety of machines, there are certain parts that we are surprisingly often asked to work on. This column will discuss such parts…
Introduction: Reverse engineering is a technique that can repair parts of machines whose support has ended, but it cannot repair all products and parts, and there is a possibility of failure. This column will explain how to perform reverse engineering…
Introduction Gears are a common subject of reverse engineering requests due to their failure. While the basic mechanism of power transmission is the same, the shapes and combinations of gears vary greatly depending on their application. Even I, the author, discover something new every time I research gears…
Introduction: Most machines with rotating parts, such as shafts, use bearings. Inside the bearings, grease is sealed to prevent wear and ensure smooth operation. Different types of grease are used depending on the application…
Introduction When using reverse engineering to repair old machines and restore parts, the material of the part can be a headache. If you make a new part using the same material as the damaged part, you can't easily distinguish it by measuring it with measuring tools or by looking at its color because the original part is still available...
Introduction 3D printers have become commonplace, not only in the manufacturing industry but also among many people who use them personally as a hobby. However, there are many advantages to effectively utilizing 3D printers in the field of reverse engineering. This time…
Introduction Reverse engineering, while a broad term, deals with a wide variety of machines and parts. Analyzing such diverse objects using reverse engineering is no easy task. In fact, when proceeding with reverse engineering…
