PCC Structurals has successfully introduced virtual development software
to reduce the design-to-production cycle. Here, Dowen Raynor examines
a .20 scale model of a titanium fan frame, while Darrel Linnertz views
the same component on his computer monitor.
PCC uses a variety of rapid prototyping methods, including onsite
stereo-
lithography, to generate one-off or prototype patterns.
