SYSTEM AND METHOD TO CONTROL A THREE-DIMENSIONAL (3D) PRINTING DEVICE

摘要

A method includes obtaining first model data specifying a first three-dimensional (3D) model of a first object and obtaining second model data specifying a second 3D model of a second object. The first model data indicates a location of the first 3D model relative to a model space and the second model data indicates a location of the second 3D model relative to the model space, where the second 3D model intersects the first 3D model in the model space. The method further includes processing the first model data and the second model data to generate machine instructions executable by a 3D printing device to generate a physical model of the first object, the physical model defining a void region to receive a physical instance of the second object.

1. A method comprising:
obtaining first model data specifying a first three-dimensional (3D) model of a first object, the first model data indicating a location of the first 3D model relative to a model space; obtaining second model data specifying a second 3D model of a second object, the second model data indicating a location of the second 3D model relative to the model space, wherein, in the model space, the second 3D model intersects the first 3D model; and processing the first model data and the second model data to generate machine instructions executable by a 3D printing device to generate a physical model of the first object, wherein the physical model defines a void region to receive a physical instance of the second object.
