Product Description
This reference provides complete coverage of a major new technology that generates physical objects directly from a graphical computer database. Known as “Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing” (RP&M), it enables diverse industries to improve product design and part quality, bring products to market faster and reduce product development costs while boosting productivity. Focusing on StereoLithography-based RP&M developed by “3D Systems”, which pioneered RP&M, this practical book introduces design and manufacturing engineers to basic RP&M principles, shows step by step how to create a StereoLithography prototype and reveals the accuracy levels that can be attained with this new technology. Case studies illustrate how leading aerospace, automotive, component and medical device manufacturers have gained a competitive edge by applying RP&M. This book also describes various alternate approaches to RP&M.

Rapid Prototyping Technology: Selection And Application

Parts printed by voxeljet technology are designated to use as lost models for investment casting and can be treated like wax-patterns. The movie shows all relevant steps proceeded at an investment casting foundry: adding the gating system, creating the shell, autoclaving, burn-out in the oven, casting and cracking the mould.

SLA rapid prototyping machine. Watch a rapid prototype being built using layer additive fabrication technology and laser power! This is the industry standard technology for building rapid prototype parts and masters for tooling using vacuum casting technology. Accurate to between 1-2% or 0.1/0.2mm whichever is the greater, SLA parts are proven to work better and have better surface finish and mechanical properties than most other rp technologies.

Product Description
Advanced manufacturing technologies (AMTs) combine novel manufacturing techniques and machines with the application of information technology, microelectronics and new organizational practices within the manufacturing sector. They include “hard” technologies such as rapid prototyping, and “soft” technologies such as scanned point cloud data manipulation. AMTs contribute significantly to medical and biomedical engineering. The number of applications is rapidly increasing, with many important new products now under development.

Advanced Manufacturing Technology for Medical Applications outlines the state of the art in advanced manufacturing technology and points to the future development of this exciting field. Early chapters look at actual medical applications already employing AMT, and progress to how reverse engineering allows users to create system solutions to medical problems. The authors also investigate how hard and soft systems are used to create these solutions ready for building. Applications follow where models are created using a variety of different techniques to suit different medical problems

• One of the first texts to be dedicated to the use of rapid prototyping, reverse engineering and associated software for medical applications
• Ties together the two distinct disciplines of engineering and medicine
• Features contributions from experts who are recognised pioneers in the use of these technologies for medical applications
• Includes work carried out in both a research and a commercial capacity, with representatives from 3 companies that are established as world leaders in the field – Medical Modelling, Materialise, & Anatomics
• Covers a comprehensive range of medical applications, from dentistry and surgery to neurosurgery and prosthetic design

Medical practitioners interested in implementing new advanced methods will find Advanced Manufacturing Technology for Medical Applications invaluable as will engineers developing applications for the medical industry. Academics and researchers also now have a vital resource at their disposal.

as it relates to Industrial Technology

Developments in Formula One but also in normal Cars move almost as fast as the cars themselves. Rapid prototyping is a method which allows new components to be built and tested within a day.

Product Description
Although the basic injection molding technology has not changed much since the publication of the 3rd edition of Injection Molding Machines, there has been considerable progress in certain process applications that make special demands on machinery and their control functions in particular. The book provides an elegant, succinct description of the injection molding process. By concentrating on a few key parameters, such as pressure, temperature, their rates and their influence on the properties of moldings, it provides a clear insight into this technology. The subsequent comprehensive presentation of technical data relating to individual machine compents and performance is unique and will be especially appreciated by practitioners.
