Prototype
By utilizing computer technology, highly skilled
engineers and moldmakers and high performance
machining equipment, a sample of the part can
be made. This allows testing of the physical part
to see if it meets the customer's requirements
before the mold is built.
A complete
3D computer drawing can be turned into a test
part by using rapid prototyping techniques. A
3D part file is sent, in security, to an outside
rapid prototyping facility and a solid part is
returned which can then be used to verify general
shape and aesthetic qualities including paint
and texture. |
