Batik Modification of Radiator Cover by Using Reverse Engineering Technique

Modification is one of the ways used to actualize oneself in mass products. Motorcycle radiator covers are an interesting component to combine with Batik, which is part of Indonesian culture. This cover has a specific shape. In this study, this process will be carried out by reverse engineering techniques which include 3D scanning, Re-drawing, modification, and production processes. The 3D scanning process was performed by using a handled 3D scanner tool which had a specification of 0.2 m × 0.2 m × 0.2 m to 2 m × 2 m × 2 m scanning volume with 0.45 m to 1.6 m of operation range. The process was optimized by object coloring. The CAD object was re-drawn and evaluated by using a combination of CAD/CAE and their features. Surface generating and editing were among the most useful features used in this work. The result showed that this technique could accommodate the objective of this work.
