    GUJARAT TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY

    MECHANICAL (CAD/CAM) (08)/ MECHANICAL (MACHINE DESIGN) (09)


    RAPID PROTOTYPING AND TOOLING
    SUBJECT CODE: 2740801
    SEMESTER: IV
    Type of course: Post Graduate
    Prerequisite: Zeal to learn the Subject
    Rationale: In present era it is highly essential to be able to prepare final product or its prototypes at the
    earliest. This is desirable to ensure that all the expected requirement of product are addressed and if
    required, its performance is also assessed from the prototype. Rapid prototyping offers a convenient option
    for manufacturing of product or its prototype from the CAD model.
