Abstract
Information on assembly components to be printed by a three dimensional (3D) printer is accessed. Different assembly arrangements are determined based on the information to optimise three dimensional (3D) nesting.
Claims15
A method comprising:
- receiving component information representing components to be printed by a three dimensional (3D) printer;
- generating assembly arrangements representing a functional assembly of the components within a bounding box;
- and
- determining a 3D nesting arrangement using the generated assembly arrangements.
1 more element
An apparatus comprising:
- a controller to:
- access information on assembly components to be printed by a three dimensional (3D) printer;
- and determine, based on the information, different assembly arrangements to optimise three dimensional (3D) nesting.
A computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:
- obtain component information of a printable assembly and determine, based on the information, different dispositions of the assembled components to be used in three dimensional (3D) nesting.
