摘要: A mold for use in molding a surface of a component is formed from separate building blocks that are assembled together so that mold surface segments associated with each of the building blocks line up to form one contiguous mold surface that corresponds with the shape of the mold. The building blocks can be formed to have integral formations for connecting them together. The building blocks can be formed by modeling the contiguous mold surface, dividing this first mold model into sections which define discrete building block models, and then forming each building block separately based on the discrete building block models. For instance, the individual block models can be assigned to different additive manufacturing machines and then later be assembled together at a final location.

摘要: A sanding system for sanding a surface of a part includes a scanner and a sander. The scanner scans the part to obtain a three-dimensional (3D) surface model of the surface of the part to be sanded. The sander sands the surface of the part. The sander includes a sanding effector that engages and sands the surface of the part and a robot coupled to the sanding effector. The robot moves the sanding effector into engagement with and across the surface of the part based on the 3D surface model to sand the surface of the part.
