Rapid tooling

Abstract
Rapid tooling can be seen as the second wave in rapid prototyping because, with rapid tooling, the production process can be prototyped instead of the final product. This article discusses and compares several existing processes available for rapid tooling. For each process, the product size and the number of shots is estimated. Since this text was part of the Internet Conference on Rapid Prototyping, a summary of the reactions from the participants is also given.
