1. Rapid Prototyping Methods
•Most of these methods are additive, rather than
subtractive, processes.
•Build parts in layers based on CAD model.
•SLA = Stereo Lithography Apparatus
•SLS = Selective Laser Sintering
•FDM = Fused Deposition Modeling
•LOM = Laminated Object Manufacturing
•Liquid silicone rubber (LSR) moldingprocess
•3D Printing
