Rapid Prototyping & Tooling
Rapid Prototyping & Tooling
|
|
 Rapid Prototyping & Tooling constitutes part of the expertise of NYP’s School of Engineering (Manufacturing). Over the years, it has been supporting industry in meeting the challenges in product design and development, which encompasses conceptual design, mechanical design, rapid prototyping, and rapid tooling & mould development for consumer electronics, medical devices and aerospace. The key services offered include: |
| A) Product Design, Development & Industrial Design We have accumulated extensive experience working with industrial partners and are able to provide turnkey product development solutions, which includes services such as Finite Element Analysis, Mould Flow Analysis, Reverse Engineering and Computer-aided Manufacture (CAM).
|
B) Rapid Prototyping & Rapid Manufacturing
The facilities include Stereolithography, Selective Laser Sintering, Fused Deposition Modeling and Direct Metal Laser Sintering. Both rapid prototyping in polymer and metal material can be carried out and the following equipments and software tools (such as Unigraphics NX, ProEngineer and Magics Software) are available:
• Rapid Prototyping o Selective Laser Sintering – EOS P390
o Stereo Lithography Apparatus – SLA Viper Si2 o Fused Deposition Modelling – FDM Fortus 900mc • Rapid Tooling o Direct Metal Laser Sintering - EOS M270 • Vacuum Casting o HEK C004 |
C) Rapid Tooling & Hybrid Tooling
We have developed and fabricated several rapid tooling inserts, with conformal cooling for the plastic molding industry. The rapid tooling inserts are built using the Direct Metal Laser Sintering machine and it can be fabricated in various metal-based materials.
|
| D) Vacuum Casting Vacuum Casting is a process that can be used to create multiple copies of a plastic prototype, with greater durability. We can fabricate in polyurethane, investing casting wax, low melting point alloy and even dual materials. |
E) Appearance and Functional Model Our teams of experienced staff are able to develop and fabricate functional models by providing texturing, cosmetics, graphics and transfer lettering services. |
