ProtoCAM Managing Partner Ray Biery spoke recently at a seminar hosted by Lehigh University’s Center for Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology. The conference was held at Arkema Inc. in King of Prussia, PA, a producer of industrial chemicals. Biery’s presentation was titled "Low Cost Rapid Prototyping Options".

Biery gave an overview of the rapid prototyping technologies, including stereolithography (SLA), selective laser sintering (SLS), and fused deposition modeling (FDM), and discussed the different kinds of rapid prototyping materials. He also spoke about the future of the rapid prototyping industry, including the trend to rapid manufacturing and its newest terminologies like additive manufacturing - the creation of production-ready parts.
