Reverse Engineering: Mechanicnal Product - Functional Analysis




Perform an analysis of the Mechanical Product you selected for your Reverse Engineering efforts. Use the following procedure:

1. What is the purpose or primary function of the object?

2. Make an educated guess as to how this product operates. Use simple machines’ terminology to explain the object’s sequential operation.

3. Identify the system inputs, intended product function, and outputs. Use power point to create a "black box" graphic like the toothbrush example discussed in class. Save the slide as a .jpg image and post it to answer this question.

4. What mechanical components are visible?

5. What is it about this device’s function that you cannot identify, because the mechanical components are hidden from plain view?
