Abstract
This paper presents the stages taken to remanufacture a damaged part, for which no documentation is available, using the SLM additive technologies. A damaged part is scanned using the COMET L3D scanner and the points cloud is used to redesign and reconstruct the part as a 3D CAD model. Using the generated 3D CAD model the build job for the SLM is created by designing and adding the construction supports, the material type and the type of hatching strategy for each slice. The slices are used by the SLM250HL equipment and the new metallic part is manufactured. The manufactured part was scanned with the same 3D scanner and the data from the original part was compared with the new reading. The results can be used to reconstruct more complex parts, to redesign the broken parts and to improve the manufacturing process.
