Rapid prototyping in car industry

Additive manufacturing or the rapid prototyping technology is very useful among the engineers and designers, as it offers fast and accurate way of realizing the potential of the product. Adopting rapid prototyping bring high fidelity from the conceptualized design compared to the paper designs. The realization of the concept design helps the engineer to understand the look and the feel of the design and make instantly changes if the client feels unsatisfied. Also it gives the advantage of identification of the designing flaws prior the mass production phase. That means that today industries can save money and time. With additive manufacturing the time of making moulds, patterns and special tools can be eliminated.  The following video shows how the car industry implemented the rapid prototyping in order to print light products saving time and money.
