AbstractIn recent years, rapid prototyping (RP) and rapid tooling (RT) technologies have been implemented in many aspects of industry, especially in the area of new product development. Based on RP and RT technologies, the paper proposes a rapid design and manufacturing system of the product. There are two ways to develop a new product in this system. One is beginning with a design concept, and another is from a sample as a reference. The reverse engineering technology, transmission processing software or modules of the input data, structure analysis and optimization means and manufacturing process analysis tools were integrated in the system. Some examples show that the integrated system not only can reduce the number of design iterations but also improve the efficiency and reliability of the product design.

Design for additive manufacturing: a comprehensive review of the tendencies and limitations of methodologies

“…It helps that the piece’s structures or assembly support the load while reducing the weight, obtaining as an advantage the reduction of weight constituting an incremental improvement more of weight than load factor. Many references [(Ponche et al , 2014), (Vayre et al , 2012), (Guangchun et al , 2004), (Salonitis, 2016), (Reiher et al , 2017), (Yang et al , 2015), (Comotti et al , 2017), (Beyer and Figueroa, 2016)], that are observed in Table 9 follow this logic. In total, 7%–10% (2017 to 2019, respectively) of the methods focus on improving the thermal, electrical or flow through the piece.…”

Case study: promoting design automation by rural manufacturers

“…This site visit provided a better understanding of each company's design and manufacturing capabilities, as well as what constituted their product line. For efficient product development, it is important to begin prototyping at the design stage in the process to reduce lead times, reduce direct manufacturing costs and avoid mistakes, and improve quality (Guangchun et al, 2004). At these meetings, project scope, timeline, and outcome expectations were established.…”

A Study On The Effects Of Several Surface Treathments By Smoothness An Strenght On The Prototypes Produced By Fdm Technology

“…Tasarımı yapılan modeller 3B yazıcılarda plastik hammadde kullanarak üretilebilmektedir. Üretilen prototipler bilgisayar ortamında modelle karşılaştırılarak farklar ve hataların tespiti yapılabilmektedir [4][5][6]. 3B yazıcı teknolojisi zaman kazandırması ve kolaylıklar H sayesinde pek çok sahada kullanımı artmıştır.…”
