摘要

Methods for product data management and corresponding systems (100) and computer-readable mediums (126). A method includes receiving (205) a solid model (522). The method includes analyzing (210) the solid model (522) to determine a suggested orientation (524, 526) that minimizes a build height or minimizes a support volume. The method includes displaying and saving (220) the suggested orientation (524, 526).
