Repairing a Broken Olympus Mju by Reverse Engineering with FreeCAD
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 сер 2024
- Reverse engineering is a really cool application of 3D scanning! It can be used to replicate parts that cannot be purchased so that older products can be repaired. It can also be used to customize parts.
Even if the part is broken, the part's scan data can still be used to recreate a CAD model of the entire part. This can be accomplished using free tools like Gom Inspect and FreeCAD.
Once the CAD file is created, the part can be sent out for 3D printing. We used Shapeways @ shapeways.com to 3D print our part.

Adam, This is awesome!
Very cool! Thanks for the info!
Such a cool venture Adam! I've been playing around with a Creality scanner for a bit for making some patient-specific surgical tools. Very fun and satisfying when everything comes together. You're at least a couple orders of magnitude more precise than me with this scanner I'm sure!

Any possibility of you doing the plastic gears on the bottom?
Hi, is there any chance you could make the file available for 3d printing. I have a MJU that id like to repair
I added a link to the description where you can download the .stp file for printing. Make sure to choose a high-resolution printing method.
Nice! What song is playing as you make the repair?
i have a broken switch to yashica t5 but i had no idea how to get so tiny and complex object recreated. this is the way. i gave up :p
have the same camera and I can’t use it anymore because the gear got broke and it won’t load a film. Sadly I can’t find a parts to replace it. Anyway, your video was cool! ☺️
Bummer! I could reverse engineer you one, but honestly the cost to do so would exceed the value of your camera - unless of course you could print and sell additional parts to others.
@@sentinel3dscanning I would love to but I’m from Philippines. For sure it will cost me a lot too on shipping the item. Anyway, thank you for the offer tho! 😊
Who did you use to 3d print the part?
For this part, I used Shapeways. For a project that will be featured in an upcoming video, I had to use Protolabs because I needed higher resolution prints. No complaints about either company. It can get expensive if you need parts right away, though.
