The implementation of rapid prototyping technologies has been developed for automotive engineering by utilizing concurrent engineering principes integrated with slective laser sintering. The Selective Laser Sintering, in which a part is generated in layers form powder using a computer-controlled laser scanning apparatus and power feed system. An over view of the basic principles of SLS Machine operation is given. Binding mechanisms are described for power which becomes thermally activated bye the scanning laser beam; viscous flow and melting of a low-melting-point phase in powder. The production of parts from metal is described, including post processing to improve structural integrity and induce a transformation.

Rapid Prototyping(RP) techniques have revolutionized traditional manufacturing methods. These techniques allow the user to fabricate a part directly from a conceptual model before investing in production tooling and help develop new models with significant short time. This paper suggests to new process to manufacture large size hollow shape parts for prototype-car using Rapid Prototyping technology and Vacuum Molding with the reduction of delivery time. In addition, This paper introduces the dividing and combining method to make large size RP master model in spite of the limit of the build chamber dimensions of commercialized RP system and post-processing method to achieve sufficient surface quality.

Rapid prototyping for welding and milling is a hybrid approach that makes use of welding as additive and conventional milling as subtractive technique. For two years this concept has been used to verify manufacturing mold and mechanical parts successfully. In latest new fabrication methods. For example, manufacturing mold for two sort of materials and shell fabrication, have been applied to the concept in KIST. This methods will be an alternative proposal in rapid prototyping. Metal deposition for welding causes the part to deform. It is a handicap in our proceeding. To overcome this problem, in this paper, we represent an optimal welding path for FEM analysis. Eight paths are tried to this and the value of deformation is average and standard deviation in four points'. Then we can compare with eight cases and select the optimal path.

The purpose of this study is the development of the extensive Rapid Prototyping Technique, which can resolve the long-term manufacturing process, shrinkage and deformation occurring rapid prototyping technique. To begin with, the various specimens for tensile and bending test were manufactured on the basis of this modeling technology. Then, many kinds of the laminate pieces for the test were made by using the sheet steels 1 mm and 2 mm thickness which is composed of the same ingredient. Not only the mechanical strength of the both of the laminate specimens by the developed Rapid Prototyping using projection welding and non-laminate specimens of 5 mm thickness were evaluated, but the mechanical strength of the specimens of the tensile and bending test composed of heterogeneous components were also estimated.

In this work, rapid prototyping and three-dimensional finite element analysis are simultaneously applied to the die design of metal forming processes. Rapid prototyping is a new prototyping technology which produces three-dimensional part models directly from CAD data and has been extensively applied to various manufacturing processes. There are many types of rapid prototyping systems due to their building principles and materials. In this work, Stereolithography Apparatus(SLA), which is the most widely used rapidprototyping system, is introduced to manufacture the die set. For general preparation of STL file, which is the standard input file of rapid prototyping system, mesh data which are used in describing the die surface in finite element analysis are translated so that rapid prototyping and finite element analysis are dffectively connected. A die set for spider forging and a clover punch for deep drawing section are manufactured effciently using SLA prototypes, and metal forming experiments are carried out using them. Comparing the result of experiments with that of analyses, the processes can be predicted and designed successfully.

Rapid prototyping is becoming an increasingly importnat techniuqe involved in the design cycles of modern industry. The majority of the rapid prototyping systems currently available use photo-reactive resins and waxes as the raw materials. The models produced by these systems often have relatively poor mechanical and physical properties and as such have a limited application to the production of advance prototypes but are excellently suited to the manufacture of engineering prototyes. This work identifies the need to produed near production grade advance prototypes from a variety of metals and a novel prototyping process based on the techniques of selective laser sintering and conventional machining is proposed. The integration of a carbon dioxide laser and a conventional machine tool to create the opto-mechanical by multi-layer sintering and some of the problems involved are also discussed.

The objective of this research is to develop an efficient reverse engineering method of 3-dimensional compound surfaces for raped prototyping process. As a first step, several image processing techniques were applied to the measured data obtained using laser scanner. And the boundary information of the compound surface were extracted to divide the surface into several separate regions. As a next step, the Delaunay triangulation method were applied to reconstruct the surface based on the measured data and the boundary information. Finally, the STL file were created for the rapid prototyping process. Required simulations and experiments were performed and the results were analyzed to show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

The Direct Metal Prototyping(DMP), one of the rapid prototyping technologies, allows the manufacturing of three-dimensional metallic parts using metal powders directly from the CAD data. Laser power and scanning speed are the most important variables of the process. The objective of this study is to obtain the design data for laser power and scanning speed to bond metal powders effectively using the finite element method. To obtain the design values, a numerical analysis considering two-dimensional heat transfer during the sintering of metal powder layers of the process was performed. The laser beam has been modeled to have directionality in its heat flux distribution, i. e., in the scanning direction a Gaussian beam mode distribution has been assumed and in the thickness direction a square beam mode distribution. The three-dimensional irregular distribution of metal powders of the powder layer is idealized as two-dimensional distribution in which metal powders are located regularly and periodically on the plate. In this study the design values of laser power vs scanning speed have been obtained. Temperature distribution and temperature variation of the powder layers with respect to time have been predicted. The commputed dsign data will be useful in determining the initial conditions of the process.
