Today, Rapid Prototyping techniques provide designers with a tangible "hard copy" of a CAD
drawing. Although most CAD systems can produce very realistic shaded images of the
design, a model always gives much more infonnation (e.g. design errors) and is much easier
to understand.
Stereolithography is the most used Rapid Prototyping technology. About 85 % of all Rapid
Prototyping machines are laser photo polymerisation machines.
