Actual trends in manufacturing of permanent patterns

This bachelor thesis deals with the more detailed description of various methods employed for the manufacturing of permanent patterns which are used for making of nonpermanent moulds. According to the type of materials the models are divided into the wooden, the metallic, the plastic and the models made from the resin. The work covers the description of handmade manufacturing which is performed either manually (generally in case of wooden models) or by conventional methods of machining. It also includes the CNC machining mostly used for the manufacture of larger models. Further, certain methods Rapid prototyping are described here but these methods are restricted in sizes of future model, as they are used for the models of smaller measurements. Finally, the newer methods including the methods of Additive manufacturing are also described in the work
