Dear Ed
If such a facility were to be made available then I for one believe it would be an excellent start to solving this particular problem of making the wealth of archive material more easily accessible .
On a related note, in addition to a standard benchmark part for RP machines (or maybe a range of 2 -3 parts to show the different strengths / weaknesses of the different RP systems?) how about a standard benchmark Rapid Tool to achieve the same aim but for the various Rapid Tooling Systems available?
We are currently doing a number of benchmark tests with customers who are doing this themselves in isolation - surely it makes more sense for the industry to agree on a 1 - 3 examples which give everyone a chance to show where their technology fits best?
P.S. Keep up the good work, Elaine - it is greatly appreciated
Regards
Nick
