Life cycle design of machines and devices is nowadays gaining ground rather quickly users want that machines and devices operate with a high level of accuracy and reliability and with as few outages as possible. Thus, by monitoring the condition, not only the presence of changes but also predictions related to the type and size of damage or error jeopardising the high quality of operation during the remaining life cycle of a machine is established.

The technical field of additive layered manufacturing (ALM) has offered aid in medical reconstruction procedures in order to help surgeons reconstruct physical faults and anomalies of their patients. Combined with traditional CT scanning techniques rapid technologies (prototyping and tooling) can be used as instruments for better (three-dimensional) visualization, simulation of procedures and treatment of patients. Virtual models have been used for surgical preparations and RP models for manufacturing of implants.
