Popis: | For rapid prototyping of large objects a method has been developed using an approximation of the shape of the original model with a set of layers with ruled front surfaces. This paper addresses the manufacturability of these ruled surfaces taking into consideration the constraints set by the cutting process (foam material and a heated blade), the kinematics of the equipment and the resulting required velocities and accelerations of the rotation axes. A simple but effective table-based inverse kinematics approach is introduced that enables to search for a set of consecutive orientations while minimizing a user-defined criterion function. The algorithms used are presented and examples of the application are shown. |
