Rapid prototyping

Rapid prototyping

The process of creating physical models and solid objects from computer aided design (CAD), stereolithography or other specifications. It normally uses a series of layers to build a physical object, and aims to reduce design cycle time and enable multiple test iterations at lower cost before moving to volume production.
