Abstract
In this paper the reverse modelling process for mapping and reconstructing the geometric characteristics of element with free-form surfaces as virtual CAD model is described. The basic approach in reverse modelling process in middle range standard parametric 3D modeler such as SolidWorks system is presented. The digitizing process was performed on the coordinate measuring machine. Using surface-solid modelling tools the virtual solid models were created. They are based on prepareing 3D curves from cloud of points as a sectional profiles. As the next step, it is possible to realize various CAx applications based on 3D feature-based model. In our case an abrasive wear of rotor blade was estimated.
