3.4 Job / Task and Assignment during INTRA

3.4.1 Reverse engineering

Reverse engineering is taking apart an object to see how it works in order to duplicate or enhance
the object. The practice, taken from older industries, is now frequently used on computer
hardware and software. Basically, there are several steps to performed reverse engineering:

i) Cleaning part

ii) Preparation

iii) Calibration

iv) 3D Scanning /Alignment

v) Finalizing and Exporting

i. Cleaning part

Cleaning part would be the first step before to start scanning process. This is because to
avoid any dust and greasy on the surface of part to be scanning. Furthermore, if the surface of
part is clean the result of scanning would be more accurate. Thus, cleaning is assumed as

35
important process in order to get perfect image while scanning. Besides that, developer spray was
use to apply on the shiny surface as to reduce blurred image but it also act as catalyst.

ii. Preparation

1. Select 'Scanners' from tab above and click 'Add' to create new calibration.

Figure 3. 1: Add to create new calibration

2. Choose the desired camera and projector.

Figure 3. 2: Camera configuration

36
3. Set the calibration board size (There are 3 options which are 5mm, 15mm, 25mm
depend on the size of scanned object).

Figure 3. 3: Calibration Board Selection

4. Turn on the projector and cameras. Adjust the distance between both cameras
depends on the size of scanned object. Higher distances result in larger Field of
View (FOV) thus able to scan larger object.

5. Place the calibration board in front of cameras. Adjust the calibration board distance
until all grids is visible and locate in middle of both camera live view.

6. Set the pattern to 'Focus' on top right and adjust the brightness.(Blue colour
indicates under expose and red colour indicates over exposed)

Figure 3. 4 : Image adjusting

37
 Over expose Under expose

Figure 3. 5: Image Result on Calibration Board

7. Rotate the focus ring on the projector to ensure the line pattern projected on the
calibration board is sharp and clear.

38
 iii. Calibration

Images calibration is required before scanning object.

1. Ensure calibration board located in middle of both camera live view and all grids is
visible.

2. Click 'Capture' on left side of toolbar.

3. View the scanned image and make sure the points are on the corner of grids and lines
are straight with clear focus.

Figure 3. 6: Calibration in Position

4. Repeat step 2 and 3 to capture more calibration images from multiple position and
angles.

-Move the calibration board vertically and horizontally to capture more images.

39
 - Bring the calibration board forward and backward to capture more images. -Tilt
the calibration board in different angle to capture more images

-More calibration images result in higher accuracy scanning. During the calibration
scanning process, ensure the calibration board is located in the center of both camera
live view. Capture at least 10-12 calibration images.

5. Clicks 'Calibrate' after all of the calibration images are captured. A result will pop out to
show the coverage and accuracy of calibration along with field of view (FOV) data.
Scanner only able to scan the object within the FOV

40
6. Proceed to next step if the result is satisfying or else run the calibration process again
by click 'Recalibrate'.

7. Proceed to next step if the result is satisfying or else run the calibration process again
by click 'Recalibrate'.

42
4. Fill in the descriptive name and default path to save.

5. Place the object to be scan in front of scanner within the free of view.

6. Click Capture. The scanner will scan and generate a piece of mesh. -The
selected piece of mesh will turn into red colour.

-Hold the left mouse button to move total meshes and right mouse button to pan.

-Hold the alt +left mouse button to move single mesh and alt+ right mouse
button to pan single mesh.

-The single scan mesh can be view on left side of screen and total meshed on
middle of screen.

-Remove the unwanted single mesh by selecting the single mesh on the left and right
click delete it.

43
Figure 3. 10: Image capturing
7. Move to change the position of object and click capture to take another scan. -
Keep the desire scan surface close to middle of both camera views.

-If the auto-align result fail or not satisfy, move the single mesh to desire position and
click 'Align' on top toolbar. If the single mesh is locked, click the 'Lock' on top to
unlock.

-Click 'Undo Align' to undo the previous align.

Figure 3. 11: Image alligning command

8. Take multiple scans by altering the object in different positions to capture full
object geometry.

-Scan the major part object first to get a general shape surface mesh and leave the minor
part last.

-If certain part or section cannot get clear picture or keep fail to align, try to tilt the part
in different angle and scan.

-Hold Shift + right mouse button to select unwanted surface and press delete key to
remove.

-Take as many scan as possible to get a higher accuracy mesh.

44
 v. Finalizing and Exporting

Proceed to this step when total meshes are done and proper aligned.

1. Select all meshes (ctrl+ A) and click 'Combine' - 'Apply Fine

Alignment' to combine all meshes into a single mesh. Undo the process
by selecting 'Uncombined' on the right.

46
3.4.2 Project

Involved several of projects during 4 months undergone industrial

training. Since, the company has received many of job requests
from customer especially service of reverse engineering so some of
job was assigned by internship students and responsible until
delivery to customer. Below a shown several of project that was
handle by students.

Table 3. 1 : List of project completed

Generally this company involved many of software such as, surfcam, Radan,
Geomagic, CubePro, SpaceClaim, 3D FlexScan and etc. But the job task is more
focusing on Spaceclaim software and 3D flexscan in order to performed reverse
engineering due our industry become less profitable and market.

47
 i. Turbine blade ( Reverse engineering )

Figure 3.1. 1: Turbine Blade for Scanning

Received job from customer request for scanning site and sketch their turbine
blade. The purpose of scanning for duplicates the product to manufacture again by
follow the actual dimension as well. The scanning site is located at Subang Industrial
(Lock n Stich). Since the product is categorized as bigger part so the Scanning process
has been performed at customer workstation. Besides that, this turbine blade was using
for heavy industries so every each of dimensions completely done with accurate.

Customer Requirement:

1. 3D scanning at site location

2. Produced mesh by using 3D flexscan software
3. Sketching by follow actual dimension ( SpaceClaim software )
4. Deliver project through Parasolid file
5. Tolerance +- .005

48
 Figure 3.1. 2: Design Mesh

Figure on the above have shown the design mesh of part turbine blade after 3D
scanning have done. Since the part has a shiny surface thus it had produced lack of
accurate image. Even though, the mesh is less accurate but by using Geomagic wrap
software it may be provide for repairing the several of location which disappear during
3D scanning. Meanwhile some of tools was been using such as digital caliper and
measuring tape for recheck every each of dimension to review during sketching, and
also for customer review. Sometimes, magnet have been using for easy aligning during
scanning of part and some chemical spray ( developer ) act as to produce better image of
mesh.

49
 Figure 3.1. 3: Result of 3D Solid drawing

The final result of Turbine blade have been shown as above. The entire
dimension must be rechecked to make sure all the number of threads and thickness
follow as actual dimension. The size of threads has been using which M16 2. The total
number of threads has been design which 4 of holes with threads, and 22 numbers of
holes.

Figure 3.1. 4: Design of threads

50
 ii. Hollow cylinder ( Reverse engineering )

Figure 3.1. 5: Hollow cylinder part

Received small part of hollow cylinder need to 3D scanning and reverse

engineering. Since the part involved with small scale of part thus the 3D scanning was
performed at scanning room. This is project from Makes Sdn Bhd the purposes of this
part is for customize with new pattern but the job requirement only for produced the
image and dimension on the top of hollow cylinder.

Figure 3.1. 6: Mesh and Result of 3D solid (Hollow cylinder)

51
 iii. Helix Gear ( Reverse engineering )

Figure 3.1. 7: Units of Helix Gear

A pair of Helix gear from Axtech Company was requested for 3D scanning and
Sketching. But some of part was damaged so it quite hard to determine the actual profile
for every gear. 2 unit of helix gear is requested for duplicated as same as actual size it is
because to replaced it the new helix gear with the damaged part into a part of machines.
Since this part involving with machines part thus the job would urgently due to avoid
any delayed during production. Some requirement and criteria to form this task need to
be followed:

1) Clean-up the surface.

2) Apply spray developer on the surface

3) Analyze the centre and origin before sketch.

4) Avoid offset on drawing since this is part of machining tools produced.

5) Put some marker on the part to be scanning easy to realize during alignment.

6) Produce drawing sheet with dimension for customer reference.

52
All of this requirement should be followed as a guidance to perform this task. Besides
that, in order to avoid any troubleshooting list out the entire dimension such as,
diameter, thickness and etc thus any kind of problem would easily traced.

Figure 3.1. 8: The mesh and result of 3D solid drawing (Helix gear)

The figure on the above have shown the final result of 3D solid view of Helix gear but,
since of Helix gear have damaged some of its profile thus the tolerance of this drawing
was produced not accurately but it is acceptable and have been compare with the actual
dimension by using digital caliper. This project was fully successful done and deliver to
customer and ready to manufacture install to machine part.

53
 iv. Engine Cover ( Reverse engineering )

Figure 3.1. 9: Part of Engine cover

Assigned of Transportation job scope by Makes Sdn Bhd. The part has received
after customers make a request for this product. This part was took about 1 weeks to
finished since the part is quite complicated surface need to be draw and scanned. Some
requirement and criteria request from customer need to be followed.

1) Scanning part focusing on the top of surface only.

2) Ignore internal surface.

3) Follow every each of dimensions as actual part.

4) Petrol cap need to be done separately.

The purposes of this engine cover is to duplicated into another to follow the same pattern
of design it is because the company did not have the design of drawing thus the reverses
engineering need to be performed in order to duplicate some of product without any
design of drawing by follow every each of dimension and scanning process by using 3D
Flexscan software and light scanner.

54
 Figure 3.1. 10: Mesh and 3D solid of engine cover

The result of mesh data as shown above have produced perfectly image of mesh since
the surface of engine cover have a darker background thus the scanner was easily
captured every angle of part. This task has done by 3 group division which is, main
engine cover part, petrol tank and petrol cap. And after all have been finished their own
part the final step which is assembly all the 3 part to make a one product of engine cover
as shown above. Finally this project was done completely and delivery to customer.

Some of other product has been performed by internship student which is isolation
valve, valve, and petrol cap. And etc. This entire product was done completely by using
the same step and procedure which is, clean up, apply developer spray, scanning,
sketching, and took dimension .The figure below have shown several parts was done
during internship.

Figure 3.1. 11: Isolation Valve/ Knock out Valve/ Petrol Cap

55
 v. Slip

Received a big task was assigned by supervisor. Handle 11 of drawing unit need
to be draw by following their specification given by customer which from UPECA
FLOWTECH SDN BHD. Casing slip known as oil tools commonly used for upstream
activity to handling drill pipe and clamp drill collar as well. This Slip have been using by
Baker Hughes company thus customer gave this responsibility to redraw all the drawing
given by following every specification before to manufacture every each of Slip. The 11
unit of drawing have the same pattern of product but different in size. Below shown
every type of unit:

1) Hydraulic flex lock iv liner hanger C.mendoza

2) Liner hanger packer and flexlock combo tools.

Every each of type consists several of unit but in different size. This project was divided
into several groups in order to finish within the time given. Some of customer
requirement which is:

1) Followed every of specification on drawing given.

2) Did not excess the tolerance given.

3) Every diameter follows the same origin.

4) Produced drawing sheet together with dimension as customer reference.

56
This project was completely done within the time given which not more than 1 week.
But some modification has been made due to customer request so the project was delay
around 3 days in order to fix again the technical problem and the dimension. Since the
part one of oil tools equipment thus all the drawing must be checked accurately because
this tool would use for upstream activity by Baker Hughes. Below have shown the
example of drawing sheet given need to redraw.

57
Figure 3.1. 12: Drawing Pattern (Slip)

58
Figure 3.1. 13: Drawing Pattern of Slip

59
The drawing pattern above shown one of example out of 11 drawing. Every each of
drawing have their own material number thus every of drawing was traced and verify by
using material number. Besides that, this project only use SpaceClaim software as their
job scope and drawing pattern as the guidance of dimension. Furthermore some
mathematical calculations have performed on the threads of surface by using Sine rule
calculation to prove the distance of base. Although, this slip part produced by using
turning and milling for machining so every diameter should be follow the same origin to
avoid any offset. The figure below showed all the result 3D solid of Slip by pattern. But
this drawing only needs to perform by single pattern.

3.4.3 Procedure of Calibration (3D FlexScan )

Flexscan 3D is a 3D scanning software that implements the usage of a computer, a good

quality projector and a high quality SLR camera. Flexscan is a low cost projector
scanner which utilizes the usage of white light in its scanning process .This system uses
the triangulation system (also known as trigonometric) to calculate each nodes or points
in which each scanned image produces as much as 1.5 million nodes that govern the
image taken . How it works is that after every successive scan, similar nodes will
combine with each other therefore creating a smooth transition between scans. Flexscan
can support one or two cameras. With one camera its called Single Camera Setup and
with two it is called Twin Camera Setup.

Calibration Process
1) Under Scanners tab, choose the cameras to be used (cameras are
automatically selected by default) .

2) Adjust cameras in 3 different positions (inner, middle, outer) and set the
calibration size under Calibration Board Square Size depending on size
of squares.
a. Inner 5mm / 7mm
b. Middle 15mm
c. Outer 25mm and above

61
 Figure 3.1. 15: Example of a 15mm square calibration board.

2) Under the Pattern selection, choose the desired pattern of the projection. Typically,
Focus selection is used.

3) Ensure that the projection light is not too bright (shown in red regions) by adjusting
the exposure and brightness.

4) Begin the capturing process by positioning the calibration board according to the
diagram below by numbered sequence and clicking Capture at each position.
Ensure that the corners and edges of the board fit directly to the corners and edges of
both the camera screens. This is to create a Field of View (FOV) that the projection
light will have

Figure 3.1. 16 : Numbered position that is required for a high quality calibration
percentage.

62
Following the number sequence, Example 1 is a center capture; Example 2 is a corner
capture whereas Example 3 is an edge capture. As can be shown above , 1 is center and
2 , 5 , 3 , 8 are edge captures and 4 , 6 , 9 , 7 are corner captures .

Figure 3.1. 17: Example from left, center capture, corner capture, edge capture

Once the capturing is done, ensure that the rainbow line pattern appear on each
captured image. This is to show that the camera is able to capture the black and white
boxes. The reason why the pattern is as shown below is because the Flexscan 3D
software implements the triangulation method which is why the lines that intersects the
black and white boxes produces triangles.

63
 Figure 3.1. 18: All captured image should consists of lines as shown above.

6) For positions 10 and above, the calibration board can be rotated left, right, top and
bottom by its centre (to acquire a better calibration percentage).

7) Once a minimum of 12 positions are captured, click Calibrate. Typically, 80%

calibration percentage is recommended and ensures that Camera 1 and Camera 2
captured the full image of the calibration board. Also, the Z-near and Z-far are
automatically determined after the calibration process. The distance between Z-far and
Z-near is the Field of View (FOV).

64
Part Preparation

1) Look through the object part thoroughly to check if the surface is too
reflective or too dark. If it is either or both, use a white spray paint to coat the
object part.

2) Place the part in the FOV as stated in the calibration process.

3) For complicated object parts, use a plasticine as a stand so that the cameras
can scan the complicated geometries of the part.

Figure 3.1. 19: A part stuck onto plasticine

4) For heavy objects that are immobile, place a cardboard or anything similar
below the object part so that it can be rotated by moving the cardboard.

65
3D Scanning and Alignment

1) Under the Project tab, click New to create a new project.

2) Under Mesh Editor tab, and under Meshing, choose the Mesh selection.

3) Begin the 3D scanning process by deciding upon which face of the part to
start with. After that, click on Scan at the top of the panel. Ensure that most
of the face of the part is scanned. Else, delete the scanned mesh image and
rescan.

4) After every successive scan, the software will automatically align (Auto-
Align) the scans to create a combined face. Rotate the object by its centre by
at most 45 degrees to either side and scan again. If the software does not
Auto-Align, it can manually be aligned by holding onto the Alt button
and can be panned and rotated. Move the scanned mesh as close to the
previous one as possible and click Align at the top panel.

5) If scanned mesh does not align as closely as desired, repeatedly click Lock
and Align to keep unlocking and aligning the scanned mesh until a desired
position is acquired.

6) Once all scanned meshes are properly aligned, unwanted excess scanned
mesh bits should be deleted by holding onto the Ctrl key and using the
cursor to highlight over the excess bits and then pressing Delete.

66
 Figure 3.1. 20 : Highlighting unwanted excess mesh scans for removal.

7) After the clearing process, highlight all scanned meshes and click Combine
at the top panel.

8) After the combining process, click on Hole Filling at the top panel to begin
filling holes in the design mesh.

9) Manually select whichever faces that requires filling.

Finalizing and Exporting

1) Once all above processes are completed, head towards the top panel and click
Finalize and select Precise Merge.

2) After finalizing, click on Export to convert and save the file into desired
formats. (Recommended formats are ; .stl ; .obj ; .asc )

67
 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

1) Finalizing; Precise Merge is used for scanned meshes that potentially have
holes that need fillings. However these fillings are straight/flat fillings whereas
for Smooth Merge is for scanned meshes that have sharp edges or corners that
was not scanned properly and hence this feature allows the scanned mesh to
merge it accordingly.

2) For symmetrical object parts, meshing method can be changed to Points under
Meshing. This method is particularly good for symmetrical objects because it is
easier for the software to recognize which face of the object belongs to which
side. Circular white stickers with black rings are used as a marker and are stuck
to the object part.

Figure 3.1. 21 : Circular stickers with black rings (points method)

3) Under Meshing, the CleanUp selection is different according to the object

part. As an example, for 3D scanning of fine objects such as hair or feathers, the
Extreme selection under CleanUp is used. The more fine the object, the
higher the CleanUp level.

4) Try to limit the number of scans in each project as each image is high definition
therefore the size of the file would potentially be very large due to many high

68
 definition images . This is controlled by ensuring that each scan covers all or
most of the face of that particular side.
5) For better quality mesh scans, ambient lights are switched off so as to reduce
interference and noise of the scanned mesh.

3.5 List of Tools and Equipment's

As technical field, every part of job include together with several equipment in
order to fulfill the service that has been provide by the company. Basically this company
is quite related with manufacturing industry thus several tool and equipment for
machining such as software and hardware bit much going to use. Even though, the
employee works in office area they still need to wear safety shoes it is because sometime
the employee need to work at workstation for scanning purpose.

3.6 Responsibility

About 16 weeks, undergone industrial training under design department. All the
employee was treating every each of trainees as fields engineer thus all the job given
was responsible by trainee. This is because in order to enhance practical skill of student
and able to make decision accordingly. Several number of project are conduct by
student, below are listed some of job have done during period of industrial training.

List:

a) 3D scanning part request from customer

b) Alignment scanning part by using Flexscan3D software

c) Producing sketches and sample design.

d) Calibration the scanner follows the size of parts.

e) Checking the actual dimension of part to compared with drawing sheet

produce.

f) Redraw pattern which follow the design given from customer.

g) Consulting customer about design requirements.

h) Resolve troubleshooting during project

71
 CHAPTER IV

CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATIONS

CONCLUSION

As a conclusion, the objective of the Industrial Training has been achieved. During the
training period as field engineer many of experience had been gained which is how to
solve problem accordingly and make a right decision. Throughout this period also some
hands-on is fully utilized in order to enhance our skillful knowledge and capability.
Besides that, this experience also was develop our career exposure thus, this opportunity
was improved my potential to be attached to a higher level as well in the future.

In addition, Industrial Training is not about to exposure student only for

technical field but it was also to give us professional skill which is communication with
customer, management system, and entrepreneurship. All this kind of thing is vital in
working environment and quite related in Technical field. After undergone almost 4
months internship, student become more convinced to face any kind of problem and get
ordinary the actual real life in industry. Meanwhile, get to learned working culture and
automatically student well known the industry needs and perhaps next someday students
will come out with new advanced technology based on field that have been attached.

To be more technically, there is some difference between theoretically and

practically which is theory is only gave us the procedure how to perform every each of
steps during servicing but practically is about how to solve one problem based on our
skill and knowledge. Therefore, industry just wanted to find out fresh graduated who are
can be independence nor to dependence to one company.

72
 Last but not least, Industrial Training is not only part of requirement before to
finish undergraduate study. Supposed every student take this as opportunities to
contribute something for a better future also boost up our economy.

73
 RECOMMENDATIONS

Since the company not involve with many of department therefore, among of employee
was handle more than one project per month. Thus, some of project was delayed and
would not run-smoothly due lack of manpower. In my opinion, the project leader should
list down all the upcoming, during, and delivery each of project as a remarks for every
project team. This is because, when customer have requested for service the team leader
will know how number of day the task can be complete by follow project sequence. So
all the project would finish on exacted time if every each of projects is listed by
sequence and avoid difficulty. Automatically, all customers must follow the due date of
project before delivery by listed on the board as a reminder.

Furthermore, the company generally quite related with manufacturing industry which
involve any kind of product but more focusing on design pattern. For bigger part of
scanning service usually our employee will come to customer workstation because our
company does not provided enough space for bigger part only small part will bring to
scanning room. Thus, in my opinion the company should provide enough space for
scanning room since the room is quite limited space may be restrict the movement of
person in charge. In fact, the surrounding of the room does not have ventilation for spray
developer handling as one of equipment use during scanning procedure.

Second point of view, the company should provide SOP standard operation procedure
for method of conceptual design for every project upcoming since this company mostly
done by their internship students. This will act as a reference and guidance among of
employee. If the company failed to provide standard procedure it will caused
unproductively and project delay. It is because; every employee does not use the same
method as well. If the company follows one method for every project thus, it will avoid

74
misunderstanding between team leader and their follower. Meanwhile, SOP standard
operation procedure for scanning method is well known by the company.

Lastly, the company should held one toolbox meeting for update every work progress
for project. If every team leader update their progress it will produce one task
completely without fail because toolbox meeting will help communication and
teamwork every team project and the same time it would be more productivity and

 DISCUSSION

During 16 weeks of industrial training at Rapid Team Solution Sdn. Bhd. I had learned a
lot of knowledge here. I have gained a lot of experiences and new skills at Product
Engineering Department.

I have learned how to manage my task more effectively during the training
duration. It gave me a lot of benefits such as improving my soft skill when I'm involved
in any test procedures, task and report that given by my supervisor. This working
environment also increased my maturity and increased my self- confidence in working
in actual workplace.

Working environment differs altogether with studying environment, where I

have learned about the industrial life and real working experience during this industrial
training. Theories themselves would not be enough in order to be a good engineer. The
hands- on experiences are the key of excellence in a job.

Product Engineering Department provides a good training ground for all trainees
who want to see what waits for the, in the world of industries. An expectation of good
company suh as Rapid Team would rely on excellent performance of the Product
Engineering Department, which conducts products testing, monitoring, designing
ensuring all specifications are correctly and precisely configured accordingly and
eliminates inherent problems and design new product for the future.

The most important thing while completing this industrial training is not just
enough exposure of industrial life, it also about maintaining a good conscience. Life in
experience is priceless than any other things, which as engineers should have passion in
their work. Communication is the key that enable students in building and improving
creativity skills and sharing with others as part of working spirit in a team.
