AS A PART OF A COMPANY-WIDE EFFORT TO IMPROVE SPEED, QUALITY, AND EFFECTIVENESS IN PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT, WAVIN CURRENTLY ADDRESSES THE POTENTIAL BENEFITS THAT CAN BE ACHIEVED WITH THE NEW EMERGING RAPID PROTOTYPING (RP) TECHNIQUES. TO DATE RP MODELS, MANUFACTURED BY EXTERNAL BUREAUS, WERE USED AS AN INTEGRAL PART OF SEVERAL PROJECTS. IN THESE CASES, THE RP TECHNIQUE HAS BEEN SELECTED ON THE BASIS OF PRODUCT COMPLEXITY, EARLY AVAILABILITY OF PHYSICAL MODELS AND COST. BASED ON THE EXPERIENCE GAINED AND THE RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF RP TECHNIQUES, IT IS EVIDENT THAT THESE TECHNIQUES WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY IMPORTANT TO WAVIN IN THE FUTURE. THE COMPANY WILL CONSEQUENTLY FOLLOW AND ACTIVELY EVALUATE THE EXCITING DEVELOPMENT IN RP TECHNIQUES AS AN INTEGRAL PART OF ONGOING PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS.
