Abstract
Rapid prototyping is an additive manufacturing technology which builds three dimensional physical object by adding or depositing the material layer by layer until it reaches upto its final stage. The rapid prototyping has developed a technology which replaces the need of tooling. The additive manufacturing technology has shown its potential capability in many fields of bio-medical applications.
This research reviews focuses on potential capabilities of RP technology for the manufacturing of medical tooling devices, Customized implant design , critical surgical planning ,effective scaffolds for tissue engineering, Porous titanium customized implants, prosthetics and orthotics applications, dental crown patterns and implant structure can be effectively processed using an RP technology.
