Rapid prototyping program offers 3-D, high-definition color prototypes that can be used for concept visualization, design review, mock-ups for form-and-fit testing, as well as patterns for casting applications. Latest technology is said to reduce the traditional three-week turnaround time to an average of two days and reduce costs as much as 80%. System creates 3-D models using Spectrum Z510 full-color system from Z Corp. Printer creates an actual physical model directly from CAD and other digital data. Printed parts can be drilled, tapped, sanded, painted, and electroplated to replicate the look and feel of the final product.
