This technology is also used by the sculptors in order to achieve complicated shapes for display in any exhibition of fine arts. Rapid prototype creates 3D models with the help of virtual designs from animation modeling software or computer-aided design, which helps in transforming the design into thin layers, virtual and horizontal cross sections until the entire model is complete and all these can be done with the help of additive manufacturing technology present in rapid prototyping. With the use of this particular technology the virtual image can be easily transformed into the physical model.
• The additive manufacturing technology helps the machine to read data from computer aided design and builds the model with the help of layers of liquid, powder and sheet material. Various cross sections are used while building up the model. The layers are combined with the virtual cross section automatically to get the final shape.

Rapid prototyping machine was invented in the year 1980 and this machine was introduced in order to form 3d physical models. These models can be created in a lesser time and at a low cost. The word rapid is used in the sense that it creates the models in a very limited period for maximum advantage. The creation of 3d prototype models takes a lot of time if done through digital data or 3d. Rapid prototyping machine has been introduced to speed up this process effectively. With the help of third printers, the tools can be formed much faster and even the prototyping can be done within no time.
This very new technology is welcomed by everyone. Many manufacturers have pitched in to make this machine that is all set to take over the market. The printers installed in these prototyping machines work fast and are extremely versatile. Rapid prototyping machines are very helpful to engineers, animators and product designers to convert their imagination into reality in the form of a model within the limited period.
