At the industrial fair in Hannover (Germany) on April a new (for me) 
Rapid Prototyping machine was presented. It is based on the principle of 
LOM. The parts seemed to be more hard than these of the Helysis machine. At 
the conference in Stuttgart only less persons had heard of this machine. 
Therefore I give here some information I got in Hannover.

The machine is distributed by:
KINERGY PTE LTD
19, Tai Seng Drive
Singapore 1953
Republic of Singapore
Tel: 65-2827211
Fax: 65-2810350

I spoke with Prof. Y.G. Wang who is the director of the R&D department.
He mentioned that they sold some machines in south-east Asia and are now 
beginning to come to Europe and USA.

The system is called "Rapid Prototyping System (RPS)".

Size: 400 * 300 * 350 mm
and   1200 * 900 * 700 mm

They use an 60W CO2-Laser and a cartesan robot. Thickness of the paper 
was mentioned between 0.05 to 0.5 mm
