Customized Software Tools Integrated in Reverse Engineering Process of Rectangular Parts with Holes

This paper presents how in the Reverse Engineering process can be integrated specific software tools, developed by the authors, which allow for digitized rectangular parts with internal surfaces of revolution, to obtain solid models and CNC program. The first tool named Rotational Axis Primitives and Recognition has implemented a set of algorithms and it is used for recognizing, from a cloud of points associated with a rotational part, the axis and geometrical parameters. The second tool named Hole_Application is created for forward engineering and it can be used to design and manufacture the industrial products with rectangular shape using intelligent technological objects for holes.
