| Abstract: | Rapid Manufacturing (RM) is the direct
production of finished goods using additive fabrication
techniques. It includes the making of tooling for
production to afford the specialized and optimized
machinery that will be necessary in the short to
medium term. However, in Malaysian automotive
industry, the efforts to utilize RM concept and
technology have several problems. The existing
problems that have discourage the enhancement of
process development of automotive industry. In
providing the solution, it is believe that by adopting
RM concept, there is potential to speed up the process
development of automotive parts and move towards
mass customization and agility in manufacturing.
These issues have been discovered by discussion with
Malaysian automotive manufacturer such as PROTON
and PERODUA. They support the implementation of
RM technology in their organization due to the
advantages. This research intends to share the
information on the influence and impact of RM on
Malaysian automotive manufacture and to provide the
prediction on the future of the technology and industry
in Malaysia. |
