Detailed ways

In the following, only some example embodiments are briefly described. Accordingly, the drawings and descriptions are to be regarded as illustrative in nature and not restrictive.

As is known, slicing software can display a visual representation of the 3D printer's build space on a graphical user interface. The build space is a spatial area on the printing platform of the 3D printer and can be used to accommodate printed objects during the working process of the 3D printer. Thus, the build space may also be referred to as a work area, and the visual representation of the build space may be referred to as a virtual printing platform. In this paper, the visual representation of the build space is intuitively referred to as a "disc", which is defined as a virtual space corresponding to the working area on the printing platform of a 3D printer. It will be understood that different disks refer to different instances of the same virtual printing platform, and that the terms "disk" and "virtual printing platform" may be used interchangeably herein where there is no conflict.

During the 3D printing process, the existing slicing software can only slice and print the part model on the current virtual printing platform. Therefore, the model creator needs to manually place the part models of the 3D model to be printed on the virtual printing platform of the slicing software, and sequentially adjust, slice and export each batch of part models for printing. For models with a large number of part models, the whole process takes a lot of time and is prone to errors. On the other hand, when the model user uses this model, he needs to repeat the steps of classification and batch slice printing every time he uses it, which makes 3D printing (especially 3D printing for multi-part models) time-consuming, Error prone and inefficient.

In view of this, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for 3D printing that can alleviate, alleviate or even eliminate the above-mentioned problems.

Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a method for 3D printing according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Fig. 1, the method for 3D printing may include the following steps.

Step 101, placing multiple part models of the 3D printing project on multiple disks, wherein each of the multiple disks places at least one part model, and each disk is compatible with the printing platform of the 3D printer The virtual space corresponding to the working area. It will be understood that in addition to the mentioned plurality of discs, the 3D printing project may also comprise other discs, for example one or more blank discs.

Step 102, saving the description information describing multiple disks as a 3D printing project file, wherein the description information includes the correspondence between multiple part models and multiple disks and the position and orientation of at least one part model in each disk . Here, the phrase "the correspondence between the plurality of part models and the plurality of trays" indicates which of the plurality of part models is placed in which tray among the plurality of trays. Such a corresponding relationship will be further explained later in conjunction with FIG. 2B .

In the method for 3D printing according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the 3D printing project is divided into multiple disks based on placing multiple part models of the 3D printing project in multiple disks and saving the description information of the multiple disks. . A single part model to be sliced and printed is placed on each disc, so that the 3D printing project is operated in units of discs, and the information of each disc is saved. After completing the operation of a single disk, you only need to switch to the next disk you want to print, and then you can start the slicing/printing operation of the next disk, eliminating the need to re-select the part model and place it on the virtual printing platform of the slicing software the process of. When the part model on one disk does not change, even if it is switched to another disk, the information on this disk will not be lost, and there is no need to repeat a series of operations such as placement and adjustment, saving money during the entire printing process. A lot of time, improve the efficiency of 3D printing.

Take the racing car model shown in Figure 2A as an example. The racing car model in FIG. 2A includes 36 part models 210. Due to the limited working area of the printing platform of the 3D printer, the number of part models that can be printed each time is limited. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2A, the existing slicing software will first place the first batch of part models 211 to be printed on the virtual printing platform 200 of the slicing software for users to adjust, slice or print. , while other part models are scattered outside the virtual printing platform 200 . After printing the first batch of part models 211 to be printed, the user needs to manually remove the printed part models from the virtual printing platform 200, and then pick out the next batch of part models to be printed from the remaining part models and Move to the virtual printing platform 200 for adjustment, slicing or printing operations. And so on, until all the part models 210 are printed one by one.

In contrast, according to the method for 3D printing according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the 36 part models 210 of the 3D printing project racing car model are placed on 3 trays as shown in FIG. The virtual space corresponding to the working area on the printing platform of the 3D printer. For example, the first batch of part models 211 to be printed is placed on the first tray 201, the second batch of part models 212 to be printed is placed on the second tray 202, and the third batch of part models 213 to be printed is placed on the second tray 202. Place on the third plate 203. After the user makes appropriate adjustments to the position and orientation of the part models in each disc, the description information of the three discs is saved as a 3D printing project file named "racing car model". Wherein, the description information includes but not limited to the correspondence between each batch of part models and multiple disks, and the position and orientation of at least one part model in each disk. When the user switches back and forth between the first disc 201, the second disc 202 and the third disc 203, the description information will not be lost, so there is no need to re-adjust and place each time, saving a lot of time and improving the model creation s efficiency.

According to some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3 , the operation of placing the multiple part models in multiple disks in step 101 may include: step 1011, automatically generating multiple disks; step 1012, placing the multiple part models Automatically placed in multiple trays. As a result, users no longer need to manually move the part models one by one to the virtual printing platform, but directly make further adjustments manually on the results of automatic plate placement, which saves users, especially model creators, the first time to divide and place plates. Disk time. At the same time, it can greatly reduce the difficulty of users' technical operations and lower the threshold for users to obtain excellent 3D printing quality. For example, in the 3D printing project of the aforementioned racing car model, 3 disks are automatically generated, and 36 parts models are automatically placed on the 3 disks.

After step 101, the user can operate on at least one of the multiple disks and/or at least one part model in at least one disk, for example, delete an existing disk, create a new disk, adjust the position of the part model, and/or Or orientation, etc., and the result of the user operation will be reflected in the description information of multiple disks for saving as a 3D printing project file in step 102 . Example embodiments will be described in detail below.

According to some embodiments, the method for 3D printing may further include: in response to receiving a user's selection operation on one of the multiple disks, using the selected disk as the current disk; modeling at least one part in the current disk Automatic partial pan adjustment. When the user wants to adjust the part model of one of the disks, he can only adjust the current disk through the selection operation, without affecting other parts models that do not need to be adjusted currently. Dividing complex multi-part models into disks and adjusting the part models in a single disk in a targeted manner can simplify operations and improve the efficiency of model creation to a large extent.

According to some embodiments, the method for 3D printing may further include: in response to receiving the user's selection operation on one of the multiple disks, using the selected disk as the current disk; According to the panning operation of at least one part model to be panned, a local panning adjustment is performed on at least one part model to be panned. In such an embodiment, the user can choose to manually adjust the partial plate adjustment, which can increase the flexibility and variability of the partial plate adjustment, and obtain a part model placement that is more suitable for slicing and printing, thereby obtaining higher-precision printing. object.

According to some embodiments, the partial pan adjustment may include one or more of the following: adjusting the position of the part model; deleting the part model from the current disc; adding the part model to the current disc; and adjusting the orientation of the part model. As a result, it is convenient for the user to sort and arrange the part models according to habits and experience, which can better meet the user's needs, and can also make the final slicing and printing effects better, so as to obtain printed objects with higher precision.

For example, in the aforementioned "racing car model", after the user selects the second disc 202 as the current disc, the part model "wheel" in the second disc 202 can be dragged out to other places to delete parts from the second disc 202 Model "Wheel".

According to some embodiments, the method for 3D printing may further include: in response to receiving a user's locking operation on at least one of the plurality of disks, causing the disk to enter a locked state, and the part model in the disk that enters the locked state are not automatically adjusted. According to some embodiments, the method for 3D printing may further include: receiving a user's unlocking operation on at least one disk that enters the locked state, and releasing the locked state of the disk, so that the part models in the disk are allowed to be automatically adjusted. For example, after the user has adjusted the part models in the first disc 201, he wishes to operate the second disc 202 and the third disc 203 without affecting the part models in the first disc 201. A plate 201 is locked. When the first disk 201 needs to be operated, the first disk 201 is unlocked.

It should be understood that the above "not automatically adjusted" in the locked state is relative to "automatically adjusted" in the unlocked state. For example, in the case of automatic adjustment, when the user moves any part model from the third tray 203 in the unlocked state to the second tray 202 in the unlocked state, the other part models in the two trays The orientation and placement of the model can be automatically adjusted to accommodate the reduction/increase of the part model. If the user continues to move the part model from the second tray 202 to the first tray 201 in the locked state, the orientation and position of each part model in the first tray 201 will not be automatically adjusted, but will remain unchanged . Adding the function of locking and unlocking during operation makes it easier for users to manage multiple disks and increases the efficiency of model creation.

According to some embodiments, the method for 3D printing may further include: providing a global preview for the plurality of discs in the display interface. For example, the user can see the global previews of the first disk 201 to the third disk 203 at the same time. The global preview is helpful for users to quickly obtain the current status of all disks, and it is also convenient to switch between disks, which improves the operation efficiency.

According to some embodiments, the method for 3D printing may further include: creating one or more empty trays for placing one or more part models among the plurality of part models. For example, for the aforementioned "racing car model", the user can create the fourth disk as an empty disk, and move some part models from the first disk 201 to the third disk 203 to the fourth disk.

According to some embodiments, the method for 3D printing may further comprise: deleting at least one disc of the plurality of discs. For example, for the aforementioned "racing car model", the user can delete the third disk 203 . At this time, the part models originally placed on the third tray 203 can be scattered outside the tray, or can be automatically placed in the first tray 201 and the second tray 202 .

The function of creating and deleting disks is added during the operation, which brings more operating space to the user. Users can place part models on different numbers of disks, which is convenient for users to sort and place part models according to habits and experience, which can better meet user needs, and can also make the final slicing and printing effects better, so as to obtain higher precision. tall printed objects.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for 3D printing according to another example embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Fig. 4, the method for 3D printing may include the following steps.

Step 401, load the 3D printing project file to obtain multiple discs, wherein each of the multiple discs is placed with at least one part model among the multiple part models of the 3D printing project, and each disc is compatible with the 3D printer. In the virtual space corresponding to the working area on the printing platform, the 3D printing project file includes description information describing multiple disks, and the description information includes the correspondence between multiple part models and multiple disks and at least one The position and orientation of the part model.

Step 402, slicing the part models in multiple disks in disk units.

In the method for 3D printing according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, a user loads a 3D printing project file, and directly obtains a plurality of disks placed and adjusted last time by the user or other users. In some embodiments, users can directly slice and print disks based on the loaded description information, without repeating a series of operations such as placement and adjustment, which can save a lot of time during the entire printing process and improve Improve the efficiency of 3D printing.

According to some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 5A , the method for 3D printing may also include before slicing in step 402: Step 403A, in response to receiving a user's selection operation on one of the multiple disks, the selected The disk in the current disk is used as the current disk; step 404A, at least one part model in the current disk is automatically adjusted locally. When the user wants to adjust the part model of one of the disks, he can only adjust the current disk through the selection operation, without affecting other parts models that do not need to be adjusted currently. Dividing complex multi-part models into disks and adjusting the part models in a single disk in a targeted manner can simplify operations and improve the efficiency of model creation to a large extent.

According to some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 5B , the method for 3D printing may also include before slicing in step 402: step 403B, in response to receiving a user's selection operation on one of the multiple disks, the selected The disk of the current disk is used as the current disk; step 404B, in response to receiving the user's disk swing operation on at least one part model in the current disk, perform partial disk adjustment on at least one part model in the current disk according to the disk swing operation. In such an embodiment, the user can choose to manually adjust the partial plate adjustment, which can increase the flexibility and variability of the partial plate adjustment, and obtain a part model placement that is more suitable for slicing and printing, thereby obtaining higher-precision printing. object.

According to some embodiments, the method for 3D printing may further include, before performing slicing in step 402 : adjusting the printing parameters in response to receiving a user's adjustment operation on the printing parameters. As a result, the final printing effect is better, so that a printed object with higher precision can be obtained. Examples of printing parameters include, but are not limited to, the temperature of the print platform, the temperature of the print head, the layer height of the slice, the thickness of the infill, whether to use supports, the type of support.

According to some embodiments, the method for 3D printing may further include: after slicing the part model in one of the plurality of disks, providing a real-time preview of the slicing result for the disk in the display interface. For example, for the aforementioned "racing car model", after the user slices the first disk 201, he can see a real-time preview of the sliced result of the first disk 201. The real-time preview is helpful for users to make adjustments according to the preview results to obtain a more suitable slice method.

According to some embodiments, as shown in Figure 6, the method for 3D printing may further include:

Step 405, after slicing the part models in multiple disks, obtain the slicing result of each disk;

Step 406, in response to receiving a user's selection operation on one of the multiple disks, providing a preview of the slice result for one disk on the display interface.

For example, for the aforementioned "racing car model", after the user finishes slicing the first disc 201 to the third disc 203 through one-click slicing or manual sequential slicing, the user selects the first disc 201 and can see the slicing result of the first disc 201 . Thus, the user can freely switch a certain disk that he wants to preview without affecting other disks.

It can be understood that the user can also choose to preview the slicing result of a certain disk after slicing some disks. For example, for the aforementioned "racing car model", after the user only completes the slicing of the first disc 201 and the second disc 202, the user can also choose to select the first disc 201, so as to see the slicing result of the first disc 201.

According to some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 7 , the method for 3D printing may further include: after performing slicing, step 407, sending the slicing data to the 3D printer, so that the 3D printer can use the disk as the part model for printing.

In an example, after each part model of a disc is sliced, the slice data is sent to the 3D printer, so that the 3D printer prints the part model of the disc. While the 3D printer is printing, slicing of the part model of the next disc can be performed. In another example, after the slicing of the part models of all discs is completed, the slicing data is sent to the 3D printer in units of discs, so that the 3D printer prints the part models disc by disc. After printing a single disc, the user only needs to switch to the next disc to print, and then start printing the next disc, eliminating the need to re-select the part model and place it on the current disc, adjust the part model, and slice. The process can save a lot of time in the whole printing process and improve the efficiency of 3D printing.
