How to establish a process for knowledge management system in rapid prototyping is a good research topic. This paper dedicated to combine the rapid prototyping fabrication process and its remote monitoring on the Internet. The system aims to build a knowledge engineering management system (KEMS) for the rapid prototyping process in a client – server architecture for the web design and manufacturing. The client site can watch the operation of the RP process and also send commands directly via Internet web to the RP server site. The idea for the remote monitoring of rapid prototyping (Tele-RP) can be achieved. UML-based model is used for the RP product data management (PDM) algorithm. The Lotus Domino Notes is as the integrated working platform for the whole system structure. The integrated system for the 3D printing RP and its knowledge engineering management can be reached. Geneva mechanism made by rapid prototyping machine is used for demonstrated the whole process for proving the process of this research.
