Rapid prototyping and rapid tooling—the key enablers for rapid manufacturing [PDF]
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 2003 Rapid manufacturing is a new mode of operation that can greatly improve the competitive position of companies adopting it. The key enabling technologies of rapid manufacturing are rapid prototyping (RP) and rapid tooling (RT). This paper classifies the existing RP processes and briefly describes those with actual or potential commercial impact.
