Rapid Prototyping
Rapid prototyping is a group of techniques used to quickly fabricate a scale model of a physical part or assembly using three-dimensional computer aided design (CAD)
data. The process of prototyping involves quick building up of a prototype or working model for the purpose of
testing the various design features, ideas, concepts, functionality, output and performance.
HistoryOriginated in 1960s in manufacturing industry with the
development of computer controlled tools, The first rapid prototyping techniques became accessible in the later 80s
and they were used for production of prototype and model parts.
