Abstract
This discussion paper proposes that development of formalized standards for the rapid prototyping (RP) industry will help enable the continued growth and further advancement of RP technologies. Appropriate standards can provide common methods for measuring the benefits and limitations of RP, as well as facilitate the transition of current advanced rapid manufacturing capabilities from the research laboratory to commercial products. Results and recommendations from a prior RP industry workshop at National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) (October 1997) form the basis for this discussion paper. This discussion paper is submitted to gather additional information and obtain further viewpoints regarding the need for and potential content of standards for the RP industry.Proceedings Title
