Abstract

Modern production at the present time cannot be imagined without the use of modern tools, such as software for 3D design and equipment for rapid prototyping. New technologies significantly reduce costs, shorten product development and even allow the production of functional parts. Classical methods of production are quite limited when it comes to making products of complicated geometry, so the response to these requests is the technology for rapid prototyping. This article describes the development of a new product, a part of cutlery specifically – spoon – using the RP technology.
