Dear Yewheng,

Following are the details of few papers on benchmarking of components
from several RP processes:

Paper by Ippolito discusses manufacture and testing of bechmark
to investigate dimensional accuracy and surface finish:
        
        Ippolito, R., et al, 1995, Benchmarking of Rapid Prototyping
        Techniques in terms of Dimensional Accuracy and Surface
        Finish, Annals of the CIRP, vol 44/1/1995, 157-160.

The following paper too discusses a benchmark componenent which
has been designed to test the geometrical capabilities of RP
processes:

        Childs, T. H. C. and Juster N. P., Linear and Geometric
        Accuracies from layer manufacturing, Annals of the CIRP, vol
        43/1/1994, 163-166.

Kruth's paper, Material Incress Manufacturing by Rapid Prototyping
Techniques also discusses a comprehensive study of seven RP
processes to make the same part. It also discusses repetetive
analysis.

Hope this will be of some help to you.

Bye,
Sanat
