Time compression technologies such as rapid prototyping and
manufacturing offer enormous potential benefits. Where time can be
saved in the development of new or modified products, expenditure
can also be reduced. Swifter development can also give a
competitive edge to those using these techniques.
However there are a number of different systems and processes that
can be used. Ensuring that the most appropriate rapid prototyping
and manufacturing technology is applied to a problem is vital to
the success of a project. The case studies, compiled by the
experienced team of the Warwick Manufacturing Group at the
University of Warwick in the UK, represent
a range of different real experiences drawn from a variety of
industries, using a range of materials and processes.
