Total C S Team, Inc and Manufacturing By Design, Inc. have entered into an agreement to work together to further optimize and continue commercialization of the RP Tempering process. Manufacturing By Design has invented a technology that significantly improves the material properties of the parts built with Rapid Prototyping technologies also known as Solid Freeform Fabrication. The improvements gained by using this technology allow the final part to be much more durable, improves stability of the part over time and has the potential to pave the way for significantly more direct manufacturing applications as well as expanding the market for normal Rapid Prototyping. “This technology has been received very well by the Rapid Prototyping market place and we intend to support many more applications for this process in the near future”, comments Earl Dunlap CEO of Manufacturing By Design. “The major limitation at this time lies in getting the right tools and training in place for the users to take full advantage of the technology. Fortunately we have been able to team up with the TCST organization and utilize their skill sets to greatly expand our capability in this area. The really good news is that the TCST team has all the right experience and skills to help drive this process into many new and exciting applications not available to the RP market in the past.”

TCST has many years of experience working with multiple technologies in the Rapid Prototyping/ Solid Freeform Fabrication market place and is a leader in developing process controls and optimization of RP systems. TCST is also well versed in digital CAD and stl file manipulation, which will be key to driving implementation of the RPTempering process across all levels of the user base. “We are very pleased to be partnering with the Manufacturing By Design team. They are a very creative organization, with an excellent application that will drastically change the way we look at and use parts produced by Freeform Fabrication,” said Marty McGough, president and CEO of Total C S Team, Inc. “The innovative ideas MBD has brought to market now are tremendous and have the potential to expand this market exponentially over the next couple of years and well into the future.”
