Abstract
A method (2 analyses (4) a layer of a three-dimensional print job wherein the value of a parameter relating to the processing time of the layer is determined. The method (2) determines (6) whether the layer of the three-dimensional print job is to be printed in a three-dimensional printer. This determination is based on the value of the parameter relating to processing time.
Claims15
A method to determine whether to print a three-dimensional print job in a three-dimensional printer, the method comprising:
- analysing a layer of a three-dimensional print job wherein the value of a parameter relating to the processing time of the layer is determined;
- and
- based on the value of the parameter relating to processing time, determining whether the layer of the three-dimensional print job is to be printed in a three-dimensional printer.
A system comprising a controller to:
- analyse a layer of a three-dimensional print job wherein the value of a parameter relating to the processing time of the layer is determined;
- and
- based on the value of the parameter relating to processing time, determine whether the layer of the three-dimensional print job is to be printed in a three-dimensional printer.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions, which when executed on a computing device, cause the computing device to:
- analyse a layer of a three-dimensional print job wherein the value of a parameter relating to the processing time of the layer is determined;
- and
- based on the value of the parameter relating to processing time, determine whether the layer of the three-dimensional print job is to be printed in a three-dimensional printer.
