  • Anaesthetic Mouthpiece Development through QFD and Customer Interaction with Functional Prototypes 
    Booysen, G.J.; Barnard, L.J.; Truscott, M.; de Beer, D.J. (Emerald: Rapid Prototyping Journal, 2006)
    The paper reflects on the development of a medical product using rapid prototyping technologies and customer interaction through a quality function deployment (QFD) approach to speed up the process, and to result in customer ...
  • A calculation concept to reduce manufacturing cost on laser sintering machines 
    Starz, Anton Johannes (Bloemfontein : Central University of Technology, Free State, 2008)
    A company’s ability to produce products faster and more economically may lead to a competitive edge in the international market. The reduction of development costs and shortened development time will undeniably depend on ...
  • Combining additive fabrication and conventional machining technologies to develop a hybrid tooling approach 
    Booysen, G.; Truscott, M.; Mosimanyane, D.; De Beer, D. (Interim : Interdisciplinary Journal, Vol 8, Issue 2: Central University of Technology Free State Bloemfontein, 2009)
    South Africa is constantly loosing contracts for the manufacturing of innovative projects to the East, due to its non-competitive mould-making industry. The paper will report on progress made in a specific focus area in ...
  • Customised patient implants : future lifeline of the medical industry 
    Truscott, M.; Janse van Vuuren, M.; Booysen, G.; De Beer, D. (Interim : Interdisciplinary Journal, Vol 7, Issue 1: Central University of Technology Free State Bloemfontein, 2008)
    Long-term growth in the additive fabrication industry will come from designs that are difficult, time-consuming, costly, or impossible to produce using standard techniques. Growth will occur with advances in the current ...
  • Radiation field shaping through low temperature thermal-spray in radiotheraphy 
    Van der Walt, Jacobus Gert (Bloemfontein : Central University of Technology, Free State, 2009)
    Superficial cancerous lesions are commonly treated through low energy X-ray or electron radiation in radiotherapy. The treatment units that produce the radiation are equipped with square, rectangular and round applicators ...
  • Rapid prototyping and manufacturing in medical product development 
    Truscott, M.; Booysen, G.J.; De Beer, D.J. (Interim : Interdisciplinary Journal, Vol 8, Issue 2: Central University of Technology Free State Bloemfontein, 2009)
    RP and recently RM have been key factors in the development of the manufacturing industry in assisting in the development of new products. Fortunately, the application of these technologies has been realised in the medical ...
  • Reverse Engineering of Femur Bone 
    Truscott, M.; De Beer, D.J.; Booysen, G.J.; Barnard, L.J. (Central University of Technology, Free State:Interim : Interdisciplinary Journal, 2005)
    The possible use of Rapid Prototypingi related technologies to support medical product development for cancer patients was investigated. The hypothesis is to use CAD / CAM / RP related technologies to substitute infected ...
  • Synthesis of mechanical error in rapid prototyping processes using stochastic 1 approach 
    Agrawal, S.; Dhande, S.G.; Deb, K; De Beer, D.J.; Truscott, M. (Journal for New Generation Sciences, Vol 3, Issue 1: Central University of Technology, Free State, Bloemfontein, 2005)
    A synthesis procedure for allocating tolerances and clearances in rapid prototyping (RP) processes has been developed, using a unified method based on stochastic approach, as developed by the authors, to study the mechanical ...
