Scope

Rapid Prototyping Journal concentrates on development in a manufacturing environment but covers applications in other areas, such as medicine and construction. All papers published in this field are scattered over a wide range of international publications, none of which actually specializes in this particular discipline, this journal is a vital resource for anyone involved in additive manufacturing. It draws together important refereed papers on all aspects of AM from distinguished sources all over the world, to give a truly international perspective on this dynamic and exciting area. -Benchmarking – certification and qualification in AM- Mass customisation in AM- Design for AM- Materials aspects- Reviews of processes/applications- CAD and other software aspects- Enhancement of existing processes- Integration with design process- Management implications- New AM processes- Novel applications of AM parts- AM for tooling- Medical applications- Reverse engineering in relation to AM- Additive & Subtractive hybrid manufacturing- Industrialisation
