快速原型制造是一种新型成形技术,它基于离散累积理念,可成形出任意复杂形状的艺术制品。近年来,快速原型制造艺术已经在艺术设计与制造领域得到广泛应用。本文主要从快速原型制造的基本原理、分类及材料,并结合实例,论述其在艺术设计中的现状、构想,并对今后的发展趋势进行了展望。 Rapid prototyping is a new type of forming technique based on the concept of discrete accumulation that shapes art objects of any complexity into any shape. In recent years, rapid prototyping art has been widely used in art design and manufacturing. In this paper, the basic principles, categories and materials of rapid prototyping are introduced, and the status quo and conception of art design are discussed with examples. Finally, the prospect of future development trends is also discussed.
