1. The Problems in the Development of Rapid Prototyping
In the current trend that the manufacturing is more internationalized, and shortening the
product development cycle, reducing the investment risk of the development of new products
and saving costs become the key to corporate survival, resulting in rapid prototyping, rapid
model and rapid manufacturing technology will be further developed.
However, there are also research-related issues in the rapid prototyping technology:
First, Material issues, at present, the molding properties of the molding material in the rapid
prototyping technology is less desirable, and the physical properties of the molded article
cannot meet the functional and the requirements of the functional parts. In general, the
material cost of rapid prototyping is relatively high, resulting in high costs of rapid prototyping
company.
Second, high prices of the equipment, currently, the high price of rapid prototyping equipment
limits the promotion and application of rapid prototyping technology.
Third, a single feature, rapid prototyping machine molding system generally can only be a
single molding process, and most can use only a few materials in the molding. So we have to
make efforts to develop and research other kinds of functions for rapid prototyping machine
to be made full use of, in order to meet the increasing social demands.
Fourth, the forming accuracy and quality issues, due to the rapid prototyping process is still
not perfect. In order to improve the accuracy and surface quality, we must improve the
molded parts molding process and rapid prototyping software. There is no doubt that
accuracy and quality are extremely important in the process of manufacturing, especially the
sla rapid prototyping.
Fifth, the application of rapid prototyping technology, although this technology has been
applied and has made certain achievements in various fields, most of them are only as
prototypes for new product development and functional testing, and how to produce the parts
that can be directly used in rapid prototyping technology is definitely an important issue. With
the further application of rapid prototyping technology, direct part manufacturing is the
inevitable trend of rapid prototyping technology development. Therefore, we have to seize
the opportunity to make further improvement in the advanced rapid prototyping technology.
Sixth, the problem of software, with the development of rapid prototyping technology, its
issue of software is increasingly prominent, and the software problem has become the key
problem in the development of rapid prototyping technology. In one word, we have to take
measures to change this situation.
