Reverse engineering is the process of discovering the technological principles of a device, object or system through analysis of its structure, function and operation. It often involves taking something (e.g mechanical device, electronic component, or software program)apart and analyzing how it works. For example, if a processor manufacturer wants to see how a competitor's processor works, they can purchase a competitor's processor, disassemble it, and then make a processor similar to it. However, this process is illegal in many countries.

Very simple, A mechanical engineering is called a mother of all the fields. So today every individual is wanting three basic properties in each product ease, economy and strength. Ease relates to automation, so today their is a competition in making products automatic for example robots. Economy, a mechanical engineer should make products which are economically good strength relates to performance and life of product. so Mechanical engineer should make products which have long life and good performance. Individual will be satisfied if a product have such basic properties.

It is a process in which a already engineered product is redesigned from its actual form that is by measuring the actual physical model and created again, mainly b,cos off--

1> straight forward copying a product
2> improvising an existing products 
3> producing replacable parts during maintaince

generally all above do not have a detailed drawings. so they are reverse engineered
