Grzelka %J Archives of Foundry Engineering %D 2011 %I De Gruyter Open %X The paper presents an analysis incremental methods of creating wax founding models. There are two methods of Rapid Prototypingof wax models in an incremental process which are more and more often used in industrial practice and in scientific research.Applying Rapid Prototyping methods in the process of making casts allows for acceleration of work on preparing prototypes. It isespecially important in case of element having complicated shapes. The time of making a wax model depending on the size and the appliedRP method may vary from several to a few dozen hours. %K Rapid Prototyping %K wax models %K 3D-CAD %U http://www.afe.polsl.pl/index.php/pl/2855/rapid-prototyping-of-wax-foundry-models-in-an-incremental-process.pdf
