What is the difference between manual prototype and CNC prototype?
The prototype model is also called the first model, which is the first model of the product.
Prototypes began to rise in Hong Kong as early as the 1970s. Because they were mostly handmade in the early days, they were named "Prototypes", which is actually more accurate. In the late 1990s, especially in recent years, my country's economy has grown by leaps and bounds, the rise of industrial design, and the prototype industry began to rise. Although the prototype is small, it has a great effect. The first is to reflect the design thinking, the second is to display at the exhibition, and the third is to inspect the mold structure.
The prototype factory introduced that the early prototypes were restricted by various conditions, mainly in that most of their work was done manually, which made it difficult to strictly meet the size requirements of appearance and structural drawings because of the long construction period of the prototypes. The function of checking the appearance or structural rationality is also greatly reduced. With the advancement of science and technology, the rapid development of CAD and CAM technology has provided better technical support for prototype manufacturing, making the accuracy of the prototype possible.
On the other hand, with the increasingly fierce social competition, the speed of product development has increasingly become the main contradiction of competition, and prototype manufacturing can effectively increase the speed of product development. It is under this situation that the prototype manufacturing industry has emerged as a relatively independent industry and has flourished.
