Abstract

[This article examines the possibility of the application of rapid prototyping technology for modeling the mechanisms of F.

Nowadays some models from the collection are successfully being used in the students’ learning process in order to explain the structure, the kinematics and the dynamics of the mechanisms. However, other models from the collection over time have lost their efficiency so at the moment they are in need of the restoration. A study of F.
