Application: Manufacturing method of three-dimensional object and information processing apparatus (Patent ID: US20240208149A1)
The patent filed by Seiko Epson Corp. describes a manufacturing method for a three-dimensional object using an extruding unit to deposit layers of modeling material on a stage. The method involves acquiring designation information related to the center-of-gravity position or weight of the object, generating model data based on this information to control the extruding unit, and fabricating the object accordingly.
The claims associated with the patent detail additional aspects of the manufacturing method, such as including information for weight distribution, calculating and correcting center-of-gravity position or weight deviations, displaying calculated values, comparing distances between orientations, adjusting infill filling rate and other conditions based on designation information, and determining model data generation conditions. These claims highlight the comprehensive nature of the method in optimizing the fabrication process for three-dimensional objects based on specific design parameters provided.
