Disassembly or tear down of a product is a major step in the reverse engineering process, it uncovers the principles behind how a product works. It is always fun to tear apart a product, but nothing will be accomplished if data is not collected during the process. To gather this data, we will use ________________________________.
Gantt chart
product disassembly chart
concurrent engineering table
a workflow chart
