Innovations in materials and processes are transforming rapid prototyping to rapid manufacturing

  • Manufacturing near the point of use - enables rapid deployment
  • “On demand” manufacturing - reduces inventories and wait times
  • Replacement of metals with lightweight materials - enables new applications

Additive manufacturing “makes it as cheap to create single items as it is to produce thousands... It may have as profound an impact on the world as the coming of the factory did.”

Prehistory - Layered Additive Structures have

been around for awhile

The oldest pyramid known is the Step Pyramid of King Zoser at Saqqara. It was built during the Third Dynasty (ca. 2800 B.C.)
