Description

Digitalization has already affected every segment of the industry and especially manufacturing. Based on market requires that are more specific and faster than ever, there is a need to use some of the online platform packages called Cloud Manufacturing (CM). CM operate through the digital data then here comes the expression CAD models or in particular STL files that are currently adequate for Additive Technologies (AT). On the other hand, there is a rapid increase in the measurement aspects via non-contact forms (3D scanners) where their data are stored in various digital formats: IGES, OBJ, PLY, etc.). Those formats can be processed step by step and follow the full path to Reverse Engineering (RE). In this paper will be discussed the possibility of implementing Cloud Additive Technology (CAT) for Fast Prototype Development (FPD) by analyzing the current situation, barriers during incorporation RE and AT, security and technical-economical aspects.

Cloud oriented Additive Technology use for Fast Prototype Development
