DETERMINING OPTIMAL OF ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING AND/OR THREE DIMENSIONAL PRINTING PROCESSES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17643709 titled 'DETERMINING OPTIMAL OF ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING AND/OR THREE DIMENSIONAL PRINTING PROCESSES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes a system where machine logic, such as software, is used to select the most suitable manufacturing process for creating a newly-designed physical part or a modified version of an existing part. This process may involve additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing.

  • Machine logic, such as software, is used to choose the appropriate manufacturing process for creating a physical part.
  • The manufacturing process may involve additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing.
  • The system can handle both newly-designed parts and modifications to existing designs.

Potential Applications

  • Manufacturing industries that require efficient and optimized production processes.
  • Companies involved in additive manufacturing or 3D printing technologies.
  • Industries that frequently modify designs and need a streamlined manufacturing process.

Problems Solved

  • Manual selection of manufacturing processes can be time-consuming and error-prone.
  • Choosing the wrong manufacturing process can lead to suboptimal results or inefficiencies.
  • Adapting manufacturing processes to modified designs can be challenging without automated decision-making.

Benefits

  • Increased efficiency and accuracy in selecting the most suitable manufacturing process.
  • Reduction in time and resources required for manufacturing processes.
  • Improved adaptability to design modifications, leading to better overall production outcomes.


Original Abstract Submitted

Machine logic (for example, software) are choosing among pre-existing manufacturing processes to make a newly-designed physical piece part, or a piece part that reflects a modified design with respect to an earlier design. In some embodiments, the manufacturing process includes an additive manufacturing (AM) process. In some embodiments, the manufacturing process involves three dimensional (3D) printing.
