  • Digital sculpture : technical and aesthetic considerations applicable to current input and output modes of additive fabricated sculpture 
    Kuhn, C.; De Lange, R; De Beer, D.J. (Journal for New Generation Sciences, Vol 7, Issue 2: Central University of Technology, Free State, Bloemfontein, 2009)
    This article examines the synergy between aesthetic and technical issues surrounding current input and output modes applicable to digital sculpture built by means of additive fabrication technologies. The scope is limited ...
  • Gynaecological product development facilitated through RP and Rapid Tooling 
    Barnard, L.J.; Booysen, G.J.; De Beer, D.J. (Interim : Interdisciplinary Journal, Vol 4, Issue 1: Central University of Technology, Free State, Bloemfontein, 2005)
    Atkinson distinguishes between four types of prototypes, categorised through its end-use: •Design or aesthetic prototypes •Geometrical prototypes •Functional prototypes •Technological prototypes Shigley and Mitchell ...
  • The impact of additive fabrication technologies on Institutional Research Development and the SA product development community-the CRPM story 
    De Beer, D.J. (Interim : Interdisciplinary Journal, Vol 7, Issue 1: Central University of Technology Free State Bloemfontein, 2008)
    The Centre for Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing (CRPM) made a humble start in 1997 as a spin-off from a proposed research activity in 1995, at a stage when Technikons were still being seen as occupational training ...
  • Limited run production utilising Alumide® tooling for the plastic injection moulding process. 
    Combrinck, J.; Booysen, G.J.; Van der Walt, J.G.; De Beer, D.J. (SAIIE: South African Journal of Industrial Engineering, 2012)
    ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Existing techniques for the production of conventional steel tooling for plastic injection moulding are expensive and time-consuming. As a result, many new products often do not advance beyond the prototype ...
  • Parameters affecting spin casting of decorative and mechanical parts 
    Barnard, L.J.; De Beer, D.J.; Campbell, R.I. (Journal for New Generation Sciences, Vol 7, Issue 2: Central University of Technology, Free State, Bloemfontein, 2009)
    Spin casting is widely used as a batch manufacturing process for decorative products. In the process, moulds are filled by taking advantage of the centrifugal effect, which is used to increase the pressure within the moulds, ...
  • A Quality Assurance Framework For Sulphonic Acid-Coated Sand Used In 3D Printing Applications 
    Van Tonder, P.J.M; De Beer, D.J.; Wichers, J.H. (South African Journal of Industrial Engineering November 2020 Vol 31(3) Special Edition, pp 218-229, 2020-11-11)
    The need for companies to adopt a quality management strategy has significantly increased in recent times as a result of global competition and more demanding customers. It is important to integrate quality throughout the ...
  • 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 ...
