ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION
Rapid Prototyping has also been referred to as solid freeform manufacturing, computer automated manufacturing,
and layered manufacturing .
EXAMPLE OF PROTOTYPING
Rapid prototyping is a technology that takes a threedimensional computer model and builds a three dimensional
part by building layers upon layer of material. Its speed and
low cost allow design teams to confirm their new designs
early and frequently in the process.

TECHNOLOGIES
The professional literature in RP contains different ways of
classifying Rapid Prototyping processes. Few important RP
processes are namely: Steriolithography
Fused
Selective
Laminated
3D
(SLA)
Printing
Direct
Steriolithography
It can be seen from the figure that the slices are cut in
required contour from roll of material by using a 25-50
watt CO2 laser beam.
A new slice is bonded to previously deposited slice by
using a hot roller, which activates a heat sensitive
adhesive.
3D Printers
Toy Industries:
The performance of Formula One racing car can be tested by
preparing a rapid prototype model with the help of wax
modelling.
Medicine:
Models of skull and other body structure can be used for
training of medical surgical operation in various hospitals
and medical institutions.
Architecture:
To prepare a model of house or a terrain with the help of
3D modelling.
