International Journal of Computer Applications in Technology (IJCAT), Vol. 12, No. 2/3/4/5, 1999

Abstract: Facing the increasing complexity of the product design area (reduction of cycle times, introduction of simultaneous engineering and of digital mock-up, . . .) a research department which wants to define a rapid prototyping process is confronted by the problem of the tools choice. Therefore, we will propose in this article a method allowing such a process. In a first section, we present the rapid prototyping area in the product design environment, in a second section we will propose our method illustrated by an industrial case.
