  • Abstract:
  • Rapid prototyping technologies are able to produce physical model in a layer by layer manner directly from their CAD models without any tools, dies and fixtures and also with little human intervention. RP is capable to fabricate parts quickly with too complex shape easily as compared to traditional manufacturing technology. RP helps in earlier detection and reduction of design errors. Rapid prototyping has gained widespread industrial acceptance as a means of quickly and economically producing small quantities of physical objects. In addition to its commercial applications, rapid prototyping tools have the potential to drastically influence the ways people create and their reasons for doing so. Digital fabrication promises individuals means of creating complex objects with virtually no prerequisite skill. Companies in the development phase preceding mass production and the individual maker face similar issues. Before committing to producing a million copies of a design, it is imperative that small quantities of prototypes are generated and validated. Production machinery, whose operation relies upon economies of scale, is impractical for the task. Thus was born the field of rapid prototyping (RP). While the term typically evokes mental images of three-dimensional printers, the underlying spirit can be expressed simply: the automated creation of a physical object from a digital representation.
