  1. Rapid Prototyping See what the future has in store for you!

  2. Product Development Process Test Prototype Idea/Need Production Final Design Design

  3. 2D vs. 3D

  4. What is a Prototype?

  5. Purpose of Rapid Prototyping

  6. Purpose of Rapid Prototyping • Generate a mold for production

  7. Types of Rapid Prototyping • Stereolithography • Most common type • Uses a laser beam to solidify liquid photopolymer • Fused Deposition Modeling • What we are using today • Plastic is melted through a nozzle and product is made one layer at a time

  8. Types of Rapid Prototyping • Selective Laser Sintering Uses a laser beam to trace over and seal compacted powder You will see this machine today It can be used to create bone replacements. • Laminated Object Manufacturing Uses a laser to cut cross sections from paper and then layers it onto the object Other material can be used such as metal, plastic, and ceramics.

  9. Uses of Prototyping • Models • Engineering & Construction • Molding • Toy Manufacturing • Replacements parts • Medical Field • Bone and joint replacements • Models used to plan difficult surgeries • Dental crowns and bridges
