Mechanical Parts Dimensional Analysis in PC Board Reverse Engineering

In many cases, manufacturing methods, such as punched parts, injection molded, or investment cast parts, indicate Mechanical Parts Dimensional Analysis in PC Board Reverse Engineering. (1) Normally, items that are sheared or punched do not require a good surface finish on the sheared edge. However, in some cases, the manufacturer will intentionally punch a hole…

PCB Board Reverse Engineering Dimensional Analysis

PCB Board Reverse Engineering Dimensional Analysis objective refers to the electronic/mechanical components on the Printed circuit board, the dimensions define the size and shape of the part and locate all part features. Tolerances describe the dimensional limits to facilitate manufacturing while ensuring proper fit and function of parts or assemblies. A dimensional analysis should be…

Printed Circuit Board Reverse Engineering Analysis

Printed Circuit Board Reverse Engineering Analysis First of all,  Printed Circuit Board Reverse Engineering Analysis Objective Printed Circuit Board Reverse Engineering Analysis should be performed to develop the missing data required for a technical data package. In those cases where the existing technical documentation is either incomplete or unavailable which is quite normal for those…

Part Identification in PCB Reverse Engineering

Part Identification in PCB Reverse Engineering After disassembly each piece-part/component in PCB reverse engineering process should be researched to identify existing NSNs, commercially available hardware, MIL-STD parts, and non-standard parts. Economic analysis. An economic analysis should be performed on all sole-source and non-standard piece-parts/components to determine the cost-effectiveness of reverse engineering PCB’s piece-part/component. A limited…

Disassembly PCB Board Reverse Engineering Target

When Disassembly PCB Board Reverse Engineering Target, notes should be recorded for possible assembly procedures to be included in the Technical data package. As they are disassembled, a list of all piece-parts/components should be created, including quantities and special part markings which may indicate that the part is either commercially available or a military specifications…

Printed Circuit Board Reverse Engineering Test

Printed Circuit Board Reverse Engineering Test includes three phases from initial inspection, test plan objective to worse-case analysis:   First consideration is Initial inspection The test requirements to be determined include initial inspection and testing of the hardware provided for printed circuit board reversing engineering, and for inspection and acceptance of the prototype to be…

Reverse Engineering PCB Data Evaluation

The Reverse Engineering PCB Data Evaluation sub-phase should take below consideration into account: All required PCB manufacturing materials specified in the bill of materials, notes, military or process specifications, or elsewhere within the applicable data? (Any deletions or omissions should be specified.) Are all parts (electronic or mechnically) completely dimensioned or otherwise fully defined? (Any…
