This study reports the findings by a panel of experts on the state of the art in physical rapid prototyping technologies in Europe and Japan. The panel focused its investigation on a new class of rapid prototyping technologies called solid free form fabrication (SFF). The efforts observed overseas are compared to efforts in the US. The expert panel was selected by recommendations from the study chairman and representatives of the sponsoring agencies. The panel was formed of members from industry, academia, and government. Industry members represented primarily users rather than developers of SFF technology. The panel visited 34 sites in subgroups of typically three to five members. This Volume 2 of the final report from the JTEC/WTEC Panel on Rapid Prototyping in Europe and Japan. It consists of the site reports from the panel`s visits to rapid prototyping labs and development facilities in Europe and Japan. Volume 1, published separately, contains the panel`s analytical chapters and overall conclusions.
