CINCINNATI, OH--Rapid prototyping may be something of a misnomer when it comes to those systems that turn out metal, rather than plastic, parts.
These direct-metal processes are now poised to make the leap from the world of prototyping into full-blown rapid manufacturing. Direct-metal systems have already turned out tooling components used for production runs. Even more promising, these systems could soon create new design possibilities-by turning out finished parts whose low production volumes or complex shapes don't lend themselves to traditional manufacturing processes.
