Resin products made by vacuum casting of silicone rubber molds Rapid prototyping cannot completely replace the final product due to the limitation of the materials used in its manufacturing method. Therefore, products made of actual materials are still needed in terms of new product function inspection, market trial operation to obtain feedback from users after
After the emergence of modern rapid prototyping technology in the late 1980s, Rapid prototyping has been used to produce prototype implants, monitoring systems, and many other medical device prototypes. Using physiological data, using SLA, LOM, SLS, FDM and other technologies to quickly make physical models can be very useful for researchers, implant designers and surgeons

The purpose of surface treatment is to increase the corrosion resistance, wear resistance, decoration or other
Prototyping Materials According to the materials used in the production, the prototype model can be divided into plastic prototype and metal prototype. At present, the mainstream material of the prototype model is plastic. It is due to the large number of applications of plastic products. The prototype model is directly produced with the same material,
2D milling Mastercam 2D CNC machining automatic programming ability is the most advanced of all automatic programming software. Complete functions, fast post-processing speed and high efficiency. Two-dimensional CNC machining is also called 2.5-axis machining, which mainly includes machining paths such as contour milling, slotting, face milling, and drilling. Here are a few main tool paths
The Importance of Prototypes The three-dimensional design software used in modern industrial design can intuitively express the three-dimensional model of the product on the screen, perform simulation assembly and motion simulation, and even static and dynamic analysis. But the screen is flat after all, and the size is limited, it can not be compared with
Since its emergence, rapid prototyping (RP) technology has attracted widespread attention across the manufacturing sector. Its ability to compress development timelines while reducing costs has made it indispensable in modern product development. Over the years, a broad range of RP methods and rapid tooling technologies has evolved alongside it, delivering measurable benefits to industries ranging
Sheet metal fabrication creates long-lasting metal parts from a variety of materials, such as stainless steel, aluminium, titanium, brass, copper, bronze, and so on. Its thickness ranges from wispy leaves to light foil to a heavy plate. Cutting, stamping, bending, punching, shearing, forming, welding, revetting, drilling, and tapping are all examples of sheet metal prototyping.
Aluminium is a lightweight material. It is essentially non-magnetic, which makes aluminum suitable for CNC machining. It has a low deformation coefficient, high dimensional stability, and impact resistance. Therefore, aluminum and aluminum alloys can maintain accurate dimensions under different conditions (such as temperature fluctuations, external shocks, etc.). Aluminum part Aluminum part The most commonly used aluminium
