Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is one of the most widely used additive manufacturing processes in world. It also a rapid prototyping process that can fabricate physical model generated from CAD automatically without usage any tooling or fixture. In general, mechanical properties components produced with are dependent on geometry and scale fabricated part. Any change parts will influence underl...

For the development of a rotational symmetrical polyurethane part with a steel reinforcement, a requirement/constraint driven approach to process design has been taken. In this approach a scale model of the process was built using fused deposition modeling (FDM) rapid prototyping technique, then used to validate design, material and process parameters. After selection and testing on the scaled ...

The use of rapid prototyping (RP) technology for rapid tooling and rapid manufacturing has given rise to the development of application-oriented composites. The present paper furnishes succinct notes of the composites formed using main rapid prototyping processes such as Selective Laser Sintering/Melting, Laser Engineered Net Shaping, Laminated Object Manufacturing, Stereolithography, Fused Dep...
