Rapid Prototyping: Principles And Applications

摘要: Rapid prototyping (RP) has revolutionized how prototypes are made and small batch manufacturing is carried out. With rapid prototyping, the strategies used to produce a part change number of important considerations limitations previously faced by tool designers engineers. Now in its third edition, this textbook still definitive text on RP. It covers key RP processes, available models specifications, their principles, materials, advantages disadvantages. Examples application areas design, planning, manufacturing, biomedical engineering, art architecture also given. The book includes several related problems so that reader can test his or her understanding topics. New included DVD-ROM presents animated illustrations working principles today's processes.
