Three-dimensional Modeling and Rapid Prototyping of the Sake Bottle Based on Reverse Engineering

Abstract

Sake bottle was analyzed and improved based on reverse engineering and rapid prototyping technology. According to the structural characteristics of the selected sake bottle, the digital information of the model was collected by means of a three-dimensional laser scanner. Combined with the idea of reverse design, the space surface and entity model of the sake bottle were reconstructed based on Imageware and Solidworks software. Eventually, we used rapid prototyping technology to export entity of the sake bottle model. The combination of reverse engineering and rapid prototyping technology simplifies the process of product optimization and effectively shortens the design and the development cycle of the product.
