The purpose of this research is to design the rapid prototyping machine for the development of micro-scale ceramic work-piece. This machine can be divided into a material processing system, a laser energy system and a control system. The research has categorized and analyzed advantages and defects in various types of existing rapid prototyping machines at first , and defined all system layout based on the results of the analysis followed by mechanism design and improvement in the light of functions, specifications, and size-demand of the rapid prototyping machine’s system. This study uses Pro/ENGINEER to draw 3D model, simulate mechanism motion and check interference and quality analysis at the same time. Finally, the operation of equipment situation is planned. In the material processing system. The packing theory is applied to design a layer casting mechanism which minimizes the slurry residue after completion of the overlay and optimization of the drying mechanism, which results in good stability of environment temperature. The design of the new rapid prototyping equipment is preliminarily completed.
