Rapid Prototyping Facilitates Rapid Casting

摘要

Because the high-precision parts used in communications, healthcare and industrial products must be ready according to assemblers' and manufacturers' schedules, time-to-market issues have become increasingly sensitive for product and part designers. To help with these issues, more designers are looking into a sometimes overlooked casting process that can provide rapid turnaround, especially for medium-volume production runs (part quantities ranging from 200 to 20,000).
