Design and Production of a Help Tool for Quick, Easy and Innovative Prototyping

Abstract

This paper describes a new tool developed in the IPSI laboratory (ENP of Oran) named (3 In 1). The latter was adopted as a powerful, easy and innovative tool and made available to the designer more features. Our rapid prototyping tool, which from a Computer-Aided Design file, corresponding to an object, allows you to quickly and easily visualize and generate a physical part on one of the lab printers. The validation was successfully completed .what makes (3 In 1) the first universal tool used ,aims to improve the field of prototyping in Algeria based on 3D printers available in the lab and trying to pass creative ideas, imaginary to the real realization. In the context of the globalization of increasingly competitive markets and increasing reactivity on the part of companies, a company wishing to maintain and / or acquire new market shares must ; control costs ; improve product and study quality ; reduce development time (design and delivery) .To meet these critical success criteria, companies need to adapt their design process and al so take into account the emergence of new technologies. In this way, it becomes crucial for companies to have the tools to quickly materialize the products under development, in order to facilitate the design and realization of all the different technical solutions chosen. This is the area of rapid prototyping research at the IPSI Laboratory.
