摘要: In an example, a method include receiving a data model of an object to be generated in additive manufacturing at a processor, the data model comprising object property data. A segmentation of a virtual build volume comprising at least a portion of the object into a plurality of nested segments may be derived. A first segment may be associated with first object generation parameters and a second segment may be associated with second, different, object generation parameters. A number of nested segments to be derived may be determined based on at least one of a geometry of the object and an intended object property.

摘要: A control system for a three-dimensional printer includes an energy component interface, an agent depositing component interface, and control logic. The control logic controls the operation of an energy component through the energy component interface and an agent depositing component through the agent depositing component, in forming an output object that is specified in a print job. Additionally, in some examples, the control logic can implement a plurality of modes. Each mode, when selected modulate one or more operational parameters of a least one of the energy component or agent depositing component.

摘要: In one example, a fusing system for an additive manufacturing machine includes a first carriage carrying a layering device and a fusing lamp, and a second carriage carrying a fusing agent dispenser. The first carriage and the second carriage are movable back and forth over the work area along the same line of motion so that the first carriage follows the second carriage in one direction and the second carriage follows the first carriage in the other direction.

摘要: In an example, a method includes receiving, at least one processor, a mesh model for an object, a first transformation matrix to apply to the mesh model to describe a first object for generation in additive manufacturing and a second transformation matrix to apply to the mesh model to describe a second object for generation in additive manufacturing. The method may further include determining, by at least one processor, if the first and second transformation matrices describe transformations which are equivalent in terms of mesh errors and, if so, inspecting the mesh model for mesh errors once for both the first and second transformation matrices.

摘要: In one example, a representation of a volume of a part to be printed by an additive manufacturing system is generated, where the representation depicts a plurality of voxels. A plurality of slices of the representation are generated. Each slice relates to a plurality of voxels within a first plane. A first process is performed in respect of a slice of the plurality of slices, wherein in the first process at least one voxel that has a predetermined colour and is located on a predetermined surface of the part is identified and a data file is updated to include data representative of the identified at least one voxel. The first process is repeated in respect of another slice. A three-dimensional preview of the part to be printed is generated based on the data file.

摘要: In an example, a method includes segmenting, using a processor, a virtual volume comprising a representation of at least a part of an object to be generated in additive manufacturing. The virtual volume may be segmented into a plurality of segments and the object may be intended to have a first color. Additive manufacturing control instructions may be determined for the segments. The additive manufacturing control instructions may comprise instructions for distributing the print agent composition and the additive manufacturing control instructions for each segment may be determined based on the thermal properties of a print agent composition intended to provide the first color to compensate for variations in object dimensions associated with the thermal properties.

摘要: In an example implementation, a method of compensating for dimensional variation in 3D printing includes receiving a voxel space model that represents a 3D object to be printed within a build volume of a 3D printing system, asymmetrically eroding voxels from the voxel space model, and printing the 3D object based on the asymmetrically eroded voxel space model.

摘要: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor and a memory on which is stored machine readable instructions that may cause the processor to identify a color of a portion of a 3D object to be fabricated from a 3D model and to determine, based on the identified color of the portion, a property of a thermal support, in which the property may affect a temperature of an area near build material particles used to form the portion. The instructions may cause the processor to instruct fabrication components to fabricate the thermal support having the determined property and the fabrication components to fabricate the 3D object. The thermal support may be fabricated at a location with respect to the portion to increase a temperature of a set of particles used to fabricate the portion during fabrication of the portion.

摘要: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor that may access information about a screen device having pores, in which the screen device is to be employed to filter liquid from a slurry composed of the liquid and material elements to form a part from the material elements. The processor may also access information about a main body, in which the main body is to support the screen device during formation of the part and has a plurality of openings that are larger than the pores in the screen device. The processor may identify, based on relative locations of the pores and the openings, pores that are to be removed from the screen device to increase uniformity of liquid flow through the pores across the screen device and may modify the accessed information about the screen device to remove the identified pores from the screen device.

摘要: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor and a memory on which are stored machine-readable instructions that when executed by the processor, may cause the processor to access data corresponding to a 3D object model, in which the data may identify a label placeholder on the 3D object model. The processor may also access fabrication information pertaining to a 3D object to be fabricated based on the data, generate a defined label based on the accessed fabrication information, and may insert the defined label at the label placeholder on the 3D object model, such that the 3D object may be fabricated with the defined label positioned at a location on the 3D object corresponding to the label placeholder on the 3D object model.
