Since the first version of these Internet pages were created more than ten years ago, in the Russian Federation and C.I.S. there have arisen a variety of organizations and companies, using RP technologies. Research activity by SLS is very modest at RF. In spite of it, I include here links and short summaries concerning domestic developers of RP & M technologies, which I've found on the Internet.

If you have information about other Russian researches in the field of RP/RTooling & CAD/CAM or you want to let us know about yourself, your business proposals by development of RP&M at Russia and Samara region, please e-mail to the author of these pages.

For those visitors, who are searching for foreign producers of RP equipment, patents, university groups, service centers, etc. I recommend, for instance, to visit the thoroughly detailed "Worldwide Guide to Rapid Prototyping" web-site of Ed Grenda CASTLE ISLAND CO (USA).
