2. Rapid prototyping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapid_prototyping

   The first 3D rapid prototyping system relying on Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) was made in April 1992 by Stratasys but the patent did not issue until June 9, 1992. Sanders Prototype, Inc introduced the first desktop inkjet 3D Printer (3DP) using an invention from August 4, 1992 (Helinski), Modelmaker 6Pro in late 1993 and then the larger ...

3. Applications of 3D printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applications_of_3D_printing

   For example, rapid prototyping was one of the earliest additive variants, and its mission was to reduce the lead time and cost of developing prototypes of new parts and devices, which was earlier only done with subtractive toolroom methods such as CNC milling and turning, and precision grinding, far more accurate than 3D printing with accuracy ...

4. 3D printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing

   3D printing, or additive manufacturing, is the construction of a three-dimensional object from a CAD model or a digital 3D model. [1] [2] [3] It can be done in a variety of processes in which material is deposited, joined or solidified under computer control, [4] with the material being added together (such as plastics, liquids or powder grains being fused), typically layer by layer.

5. 3D printing processes - Wikipedia

   A few years later (1993), the patent was licensed first by Sanders Prototype, Inc.,(Renamed Solidscape, Inc) a manufacturer of the first desktop Rapid Prototype printer in the industry, the Modelmaker 6 Pro. This printer and newer products use these Howtek style inkjets and thermoplastic inks.

6. Fused filament fabrication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fused_filament_fabrication

   A desktop FFF printer made by Stratasys. Fused deposition modeling was developed by S. Scott Crump, co-founder of Stratasys, in 1988. [6] [7] With the 2009 expiration of the patent on this technology, [8] people could use this type of printing without paying Stratasys for the right to do so, opening up commercial, DIY, and open-source 3D printer applications.

7. Design prototyping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_prototyping

   Example of a rapid prototyping technique: 3D printing of prototypes. Later, around the year of 1990, the availability of methods for rapidly manufacturing models and prototypes stimulated the publication of a great body of literature dedicated to rapid prototyping techniques and technologies (e.g., 3D printing).
