Device adjustment instrument, additive manufacturing device, additive manufacturing method, and program

An additive manufacturing method that is executed between an additive manufacturing device for manufacturing an object and a device adjustment instrument, which adjusts an operation condition of the additive manufacturing device,

• the device adjustment instrument including a non-transitory memory storing standard test piece data corresponding to each of a plurality of standard test pieces manufacturable by the additive manufacturing device and a standard parameter set when the standard test piece is manufactured,
• the device adjustment instrument selecting, based on modeling specification data of the object, the standard test piece data conforming to the modeling specification data from a plurality of pieces of the standard test piece data,
• the device adjustment instrument generating a modeling parameter set for adjusting the operation condition of the additive manufacturing device based on the selected standard test piece data and test modeling result data of the standard test piece manufactured by the additive manufacturing device using the standard parameter set corresponding to the standard test piece data,
• the device adjustment instrument determining whether or not the object satisfies a predetermined quality condition based on modeling result data as a measurement result of the object manufactured by the additive manufacturing device using the modeling specification data and the modeling parameter set,
• the device adjustment instrument storing the modeling specification data, the standard test piece data, the test modeling result data, the modeling parameter set, and the modeling result data in the past in a case where the object satisfies a predetermined quality condition in the non-transitory memory as the case data in association with one another,
• the non-transitory memory storing case data as a past operation result of the additive manufacturing device, and
• the modeling parameter set for adjusting the operation condition of the additive manufacturing device being generated based on the test modeling result data and the case data, the additive manufacturing method comprising:
• when modeling specification data of the object is received, selecting, by the device adjustment instrument, the standard test piece data conforming to the modeling specification data from a plurality of pieces of the standard test piece data;
• generating, by the device adjustment instrument, a modeling parameter set for adjusting the operation condition of the additive manufacturing device based on the selected standard test piece data and test modeling result data of the standard test piece manufactured by the additive manufacturing device using the standard parameter set corresponding to the standard test piece data, and transmits the modeling parameter set to the additive manufacturing device;
• manufacturing, by the additive manufacturing device, the object using the modeling parameter set and the modeling specification data;
• transmitting, by the additive manufacturing device, modeling result data as a result of measuring the object to the device adjustment instrument;
• and
• inquiring, by the additive manufacturing device, whether or not the modeling result data satisfies a quality condition.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having a program of a device adjustment instrument stored thereon that adjusts an operation condition of an additive manufacturing device for manufacturing an object,

• standard test piece data corresponding to each of a plurality of standard test pieces manufacturable by the additive manufacturing device and a standard parameter set when the standard test piece is manufactured being stored in a non-transitory memory, the program causing a computer to execute:
