Abstract

Rapid Prototyping is the rapid fabrication of a part, model, or physical assembly that was designed using any design software (Autodesk Inventor Professional in this case), which is a CAD (Computer-Aided Design) application that helps in the creation of a digital prototype. The creation of the part, model, or assembly is usually completed using the manufacture of additives or more commonly known as 3D printing. The paper presents a 3D design, 3D printing, and verifying the actual dimensions of the printed „washer”. The purpose of this paper is to verify that printing errors are controllable and can be reduced. The paper contains and explains all the mandatory steps required to do this experiment and the laboratory equipment that was used to do this.
