Systems and Methods for Three-Dimensional Printing - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240295869 titled 'Systems and Methods for Three-Dimensional Printing
The present disclosure introduces methods and systems for three-dimensional (3D) printing. One example includes a system and method for maintaining a command history in 3D printing software.
- The method involves updating a plurality of printing instructions by maintaining a plurality of printing states corresponding to the instructions.
- Each state represents a set of printing instructions for different portions of a 3D object, with a final state containing the final printing instructions.
- Users can select a specific state to generate new printing instructions for the corresponding portion of the object.
- The updated printing instructions are then integrated into the existing set to create an updated plurality of printing instructions.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in various industries such as manufacturing, prototyping, and design. - It can streamline the 3D printing process by allowing users to easily update and modify printing instructions.
Problems Solved: - Helps in efficiently managing and updating printing instructions for complex 3D objects. - Provides a structured approach to maintaining a command history in 3D printing software.
Benefits: - Enhances the flexibility and control in 3D printing processes. - Improves the accuracy and precision of printing instructions for intricate objects.
Commercial Applications: - This innovation can be valuable for companies involved in rapid prototyping, custom manufacturing, and product development.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method improve the overall efficiency of 3D printing processes? 2. What are the key advantages of maintaining a command history in 3D printing software?
Original Abstract Submitted
the present disclosure provides methods and systems for three-dimensional (3d) printing. in an example, a system and method for maintaining a command history in 3d printing software is disclosed. in an example, a method for updating a plurality of printing instructions comprises maintaining a plurality of printing states corresponding to the plurality of printing instructions, wherein a first state corresponds to a first set of printing instructions for printing a first portion of a 3d object. the plurality of printing states may comprise a final state comprising final printing instructions. user instructions may be received to select a second state that is not the final state. a new state may be generated comprising a second set of printing instructions for printing second portion of the 3d object. the plurality of printing instructions may be updated with the second set of printing instructions to yield an updated plurality of printing instructions.
