Abstract:
According to some embodiments, a system may include an additive manufacturing platform that provides additive manufacturing capability data (e.g., a printer model number, a printer resolution, etc.) to a model customization platform. The model customization platform may receive the additive manufacturing printer capability data and retrieve, from an additive manufacturing model data database, a primary engineering model associated with an industrial asset item. The model customization platform may then create a customized version of the primary engineering model in accordance with the additive manufacturing printer capability data and the primary engineering model. The customized engineering model can then be transmitted to the additive manufacturing platform (e.g., to be printed to create the industrial asset item).
