Abstract

3D printing technology realized the intelligent production of products. However, in the process of 3D printing, due to the limitation of production instruments, the thickness of each actual material layer can only change within a fixed range. It will cause ladder effect. Especially printing a large degree of bending, the 3D printing product manufactured through the traditional plane layered method has strong ladder effect and phenomenon named loss of character. In this essay, there are two approaches which are used in current society to solve the problems of 3D printing models accuracy. The approaches are named flat adaptive stratification and curing adaptive stratification. Based on traditional layering approach, people improved the algorithm so that the thickness of material layer can be adjusted. People named the approach flat adaptive stratification and use it to reduce the ladder effect of 3D printing models. Coordinating with other algorithms, flat adaptive stratification can also play a role in reducing models’ loss and offset characters. With the development of 3D printer, people can use curving adaptive stratification to print models. Using curving adaptive stratification, people can remove the ladder effect from 3D printing models. In the feature, people can also use curving adaptive stratification to solve the problems named loss and offset of model character.
