Abstract
The new technologies for the direct generation of a geometrical object of any complexity, based on 3 D-CAD-Data, are of general importance of the technical progress. Broadly-based and applied in leading industries like airplane and automotive factories, these technologies, named Solid Freeform Manufacturing, Layer Manufacturing, Rapid Prototyping and otherwise, are playing more and more an essential role in small and medium-sized companies.
The following paper presents experiences of product development and manufacturing technologies, also in a small enterprize.
