  • Comparison to Rapid Prototyping and traditional prototyping

Speed: Traditional prototyping is slower than rapid prototyping methods like 3D printing, which can produce parts in hours or days.

Cost: Rapid prototyping (e.g., 3D printing, vacuum casting) is more cost-effective for low-volume or iterative designs, while traditional methods suit higher-volume or production-grade testing.

Flexibility: Rapid prototyping allows quick design changes without costly tooling, unlike traditional methods.

Precision and Functionality: Traditional methods like CNC machining or injection molding often provide superior precision and material properties, making them relevant for functional prototypes.
