Hi folks,
RPML had an interesting discussion on the subject of "Technology
Challenged".
Can we summarise it by changing the last character of the topic i.e. "d"
with "s" ?
I mean, let us all look forward to tackling the Technology Challenge"s"
ahead of us and take the technology from adolosence to its youth with a
bang.
During a presentation at a local seminar, I had listed a few of the
challenges ahead of all involved in RP as under :
R/P Equipment Manufacturers : Speed, Accuracy, Finish, Materials
Tooling Material Vendors (Epoxy, Rubber) : Sustain Production conditions
for longer runs
Prototype Material Vendors (PU etc.) : Match variety of production
material properties
Machine Tool Manufacturers : Speed, Flexibility. (Considering High Speed
Machining as an alternative to RP)
Service Bureaus : Wider Range of Services
Customers : Innovate, Experiment, Invest in Design/R&D
Common for all : Take CALCULATED RISKS.
I am sure you all will have many more to add....
Let's go for it !!!
