Process

• 3D scanning of Robotic Arm Tool and Grease Gun• Reverse engineering• Structure design• Rapid prototyping for assembling test• Generative design• 3D printing of final part

4

PREPARATION

• EinScan Pro Series 3D Scanner• Siemens Solid Edge ST10• Robotic Arm Tool & Grease Gun• Industrial & Desktop 3D Printer

4

GREASE GUN SCANNING

Scan the grease gun for reverse engineering

4

ROBOTIC ARM TOOL SCANNING

Scan the robotic arm tool for reference and alignment

4

ALIGNING THE DATA

Align the two scanned data for modeling and reference

4

REVERSE EINGINEERING OF GREASE GUN

Trim the scanned data to specific shape for reverse engineering

4

REVERSE EINGINEERING OF GREASE GUN

Extract the main surface, then align it with the robotic arm tool

REVERSE EINGINEERING OF ROBOTIC ARM TOOL END PART

Use the original STL for reverse engineering and generative design

REVERSE EINGINEERING OF ROBOTIC ARM TOOL END PART

Use the brush tool to select the designated surface, extract them

REVERSE EINGINEERING OF ROBOTIC ARM TOOL END PART

Extract all the surface, trim and stitch them to a solid

STRUCTURE DESIGN

Align the data, set the reference plane for sketch

STRUCTURE DESIGN

Build the structure based on the extracted surface and extrusions

STRUCTURE DESIGN

Combine the two parts into one piece

RAPID PROTOTYPING FOR ASSEMBLING TEST

3D print the prototype by FDM 3D printer and test assemble

GENERATIVE DESIGN

Assign the rules to the part

GENERATIVE DESIGN

Set up the parameter (quality, target mass, etc.)

GENERATIVE DESIGN

Generate the result

WEIGHT COMPARISON

Generative design reduces about 50% of the weight

ASSEMBLY

Assemble the grease gun and the robotic arm tool
