AS RAPID PROTOTYPING matures, more designers are taking their RP production in-house. Once the preserve of major research and development departments, RP technology has become more cost-effective, ...

Todd Grimm, author of a recent guide on the subject (see “Catching up with Rapid Technology,†opposite), says rapid prototypes have other uses beyond the concept model phase. These include form and ...

STL (stereo lithography) format is the de facto file for rapid prototyping manufacturing. However, it suffers from its drawback in a high degree of redundant vertices. Furthermore, errors in the ...

This paper presents the construction of 3D rapid prototyping (RP) physical models for computer tomography (CT) medical images. By using STL (Stereo Lithography) triangular meshes as basis for 3D ...
