Systems and Methods for Three-Dimensional Printing - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240319708 titled 'Systems and Methods for Three-Dimensional Printing
The present disclosure introduces methods and systems for three-dimensional (3D) printing, including 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 different portions of a 3D object.
- Each state represents a set of printing instructions, 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 plurality of printing instructions is then updated with the new set of instructions to create an updated set 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 for easy modification of printing instructions.
Problems Solved: - Helps in efficiently managing and updating printing instructions for complex 3D objects. - Enables users to make changes to specific portions of an object without affecting the entire printing process.
Benefits: - Increases flexibility and customization in 3D printing. - Enhances productivity by simplifying the printing instruction update process.
Commercial Applications: - This technology can be valuable for companies involved in rapid prototyping, product development, and customized manufacturing processes.
Questions about 3D Printing Command History: 1. How does maintaining a command history in 3D printing software improve the printing process?
- By keeping track of previous commands, users can easily backtrack or modify instructions as needed.
2. What are the potential implications of updating printing instructions for different portions of a 3D object?
- It allows for precise control over the printing process, leading to more accurate and customized results.
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.
