3D rendering will always be integral to design presentation, but when it comes to effectively communicating design vision, nothing tells the whole story quite like handheld prototype models, architectural scale models, and precision scale models.
Physical 3D models enable the tactile evaluation of form, fit, and function in ways that a 3D rendering can not. And while traditional rapid prototyping systems remain expensive, difficult to use, and slow, Z Corp. 3D printers for rapid prototyping and manufacturing break the mold.
Z Corp. 3D printers are truly fast -building concept models from 3D CAD data 5X-10X faster than other rapid prototyping systems at less than half the cost. And it is so easy that you can build prototypes every day, making the limitations of 3D rendering a thing of the past.
