Systems and methods for removing a support structure in subtractive machining

A method comprising:

• receiving, by a subtractive component, a contact line associated with a support structure from an additive component from an additive kernel;
• receiving, by the subtractive component, geometry associated with orientation from the additive component;
• generating, by the subtractive component, data associated with a tool;
• determining, by the subtractive component, a subtractive tool path based on the received contact line, the received geometry, and the generated tool path;
• transmitting, by the subtractive component, the determined subtractive tool path to an analysis component for processing tool path validation;
• validating, by the analysis component, the tool path based on an output from a simulation component to determine whether removal of the support structure from a part is successfully computed by the subtractive component;
• determining, by the analysis component, whether accessibility of the tool to the received contact line is lower than a predetermined level based on the tool path thereby indicating an error;
• transmitting, by the subtractive component, the error to the additive component;
• and
• modifying, by the additive component, the support structure based on the error indicating that the analysis component determined that accessibility of the tool to the received contact line is lower than a predetermined level for the validated tool path.
