| What
is Rapid Prototyping ? |
|
| |
| To
quickly fabricate complex-shaped, 3D parts
directly from CAD data. |

SLS
(Selective Laser Sintering) |
|
- Material
used is Nylon, Glass Filled Nylon, Polystyrene.
-
Method of Laser Sintering.
-
Very good fine feature definition.
-
More economical for multiple components.
-
Most useful for functional testing of
components.
-
RP can be used for rapid tooling processes.
|
|
|
|
|
- Material
used is Epoxy.
-
Method of Laser curing.
-
Very good finish and fine feature definition.
-
Parts are fragile and most useful for
visual verification.
-
RP can be used for rapid tooling processes
|
|
|
|
|
- Material
used is ABS.
-
Method of layered deposition using
extrusion.
-
Reasonably good finish.
-
Parts can be used for fitment testing.
-
RP can be used for rapid tooling
processes.
