REDUCTION OF DESIGN TO PRODUCT LEAD TIME THROUGH INSTANT MANUFACTURING OF MODELS, PROTOTYPES AND TOOLS

Objective

The proposed R&D project aims within a joint research work of industrial partners, universities and research institutes to make Layer Manufacturing Techniques applicable for pattern making shops and companies in which the production of concept models and prototypes forms a major topic in manufacturing.
The project is concerned with making the layer manufacturing techniques (LMT) applicable for pattern making shops and companies in which the production of concept models and prototypes forms a major topic in manufacturing. Many of the companies in the European Community, to which this proposal applies, are typical small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs). Furthermore, the area shape study and design, casting, pattern and tool making shops are developed specially. In general the method can be applied in all industries.

A report describing the state of the art in the LMT area, also called DeskTop Manufacturing is currently available.
