Abstract

Additive manufacturing is an essential solution in the production of parts. Model slicing is an important step of the 3D printing process. The slicing of the layers is the core part of the additive manufacturing because it transforms the 3D model to a 2D profile layer for the printer to manufacture. A novel machine architecture deposits with a helical path. The helical architecture provides a continuous rotation that allows printing continuously without any interruption. Therefore there are no more starting and ending point at each layer. This paper proposes a slicing method compatible with this type of machine. Continuous printing is made as a function of z -level, so at each angle of rotation, the level of z will be incremented. Finally, these disks can be combined as one image to be sent to the ink-jet as a continuous printing. To illustrate this novel slicing methodology a model is sliced.

螺旋3D打印机连续打印的新型切片策略

增材制造是零件生产中必不可少的解决方案。模型切片是3D打印过程中的一个重要步骤。层的切片是增材制造的核心部分，因为它将3D模型转换为打印机制造的2D轮廓层。一种新的机器结构以螺旋路径沉积。螺旋结构提供了一个连续的旋转，允许连续打印没有任何中断。因此，在每一层没有更多的起点和终点。本文提出了一种与此类机器兼容的切片方法。连续打印是作为z水平的函数，所以在每一个旋转角度，z水平将增加。最后，这些磁盘可以组合成一个图像，作为连续打印发送到喷墨打印机。为了说明这种新颖的切片方法，一个模型被切片。
