Rapid Prototyping (RP) is an ideal way to evaluate your investment casting design prior to committing to the time cost and expense of hard tooling. Early design flaws are often uncovered eliminating costly tooling changes which help get your product to market faster!

Dameron uses a variety of rapid prototyping processes including Stereolithography (SLA) Quick cast patterns, Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) and in some cases ABS patters.

In short, RP provides the following benefits:

-	Design viability confirmation prior to hard tooling construction
-	Provides the foundry with valuable processing information for future production
-	Usable hardware for building of casting machining tooling
-	Finishing cast product which can be used for testing, sales and/or marketing purposes
-	Reduces overall time to market and reduces developmental costs
