4 About The Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME) The Society of Manufacturing Engineers is the world s leading professional society supporting manufacturing education. Through its member programs, publications, expositions, and professional development resources, SME promotes an increased awareness of manufacturing engineering and helps keep manufacturing professionals up to date on leading trends and technologies. Headquartered in Michigan, SME influences more than half a million manufacturing engineers and executives annually. The Society has members in 70 countries and is supported by a network of hundreds of chapters worldwide. Visit us at About RPA/SME The Rapid Prototyping Association of SME (RPA/SME) focuses on the technologies and processes that help conceive, develop, test, revise, and manufacture new products to cost-effectively bring them to market faster. Concurrent engineering and design for manufacturability are embodied in rapid prototyping technologies, which include fused deposition modeling, stereolithography, selective laser sintering, laminated object manufacturing, solid freeform fabrication, layered manufacturing, and others. Rapid prototyping methods are timely and cost effective for large and small manufacturers alike. Beyond prototyping, however, rapid prototyping technologies are becoming production tools. Examples include producing consumable patterns for short-run casting or even rapid tooling for injection molding. In reverse engineering, a computer model created from scanning an object can be used to generate a physical copy of it. Design engineers, product engineers, tool engineers, and manufacturing engineers interested in this fast-moving area are members of RPA/SME. They are in industries ranging from automotive to shipbuilding, and medical manufacturing to general service bureaus.

9 Preface For the past 13 years, I have been a passionate supporter of rapid prototyping. As an advocate of the technology, I have presented at industry conferences, published articles and white papers, and participated on advisory boards. The fundamental motivation for these activities has been to create greater awareness and understanding of the rapid prototyping technologies. It is for this same reason that I have written User s Guide to Rapid Prototyping. At times, the limited use of the technology has me baffled and frustrated. Having seen the powerful results that rapid prototyping can deliver, it amazes me that so few appreciate and experience these benefits. In an age of product development where better, faster, and cheaper is the mantra, how can anyone ignore the advantages of rapid prototyping and its ability to help companies achieve these three goals simultaneously? At other times, when I am a bit more pragmatic, I understand why so few choose to implement rapid prototyping systems or use the services of a rapid prototyping bureau. There are a hundred reasons not to use this new (relatively speaking) technology. Without facts and proof of the advantages, it can be easy to downplay or ignore the benefits and highlight any disadvantages to avoid the risk and effort of change. xiii

10 As you will see throughout this book, it is my belief, and the belief of many industry experts, that awareness, understanding, and education are the fundamental barriers to the growth of the industry. Of course, as with any tool, there are physical limitations that may be obstacles to its use. Yet, there is so little information available to help prospective users quantify the risks and limitations, and measure them against the benefits, to determine if rapid prototyping is a sound business decision. Lacking information, many find it easier to continue to use the tools with which they are comfortable. As Terry Wohlers stated in the 2000 edition of the Wohlers Report, the industry was in the chasm, a concept proposed by Geoffrey Moore in his book Crossing the Chasm. This is a period in the product life cycle where the aggressive, risk taking companies have adopted a technology, but the conservative, pragmatic types (the majority) have yet to be convinced of the benefits of investing hardearned dollars and significant time into a relatively new, and yet to be fully proven, technology. I believe the industry continues to be restrained by the effects of the chasm. I am a believer, a supporter, and an evangelist of rapid prototyping. My goals center on the fundamental belief that the rapid prototyping industry must help designers, engineers, executive management, and all others in the corporation to better understand the technology so that they can make informed business decisions. Is the technology right for every industry, business, product, and application? No. Is it worth considering? Absolutely. I want to begin breaking down the communication and knowledge barriers with this book. It is only one small step towards the goal of rapid prototyping becoming a widely used tool. But hopefully, it is the first step in your organization s journey to truly understand rapid prototyping. I hope that you enjoy the following discussion. And more importantly, I sincerely hope that I have contributed to a better understanding and appreciation of rapid prototyping. xiv
