The Optimization of Modeling Orientation in FDM

Abstract:

This paper introduces an optimization algorithm for rapid prototyping. In the optimization algorithm, several important influencing factors are considered, such as the molding direction, the extrusion speed, and layer thickness, etc. And the velocity and effectiveness of the method are validated experimentally. The algorithm can get the best molding direction and maximum hierarchical layer thickness. The method is comprehensive, overcoming the problems of current optimization methods for one-side shortcomings, and can make guidance for the adaptive slicing and path planning.
