conformal 3d Printing (using no support)-Martin Jewell-11-29-2021

Hi can some one help , im looking to import or slice a file that is not standard linear printing . For Example non conformal printing.

link to show what im after:https://youtu.be/Ud8p7nGR3U0


Thanks for your help !!!

You should be able to import 5-axis 3D printing tool path by simply drag and dropping the NC file in RoboDK.
But RoboDK can't help you create such a file.
你需要找到一个切片机可以做这样的事and I don't know any personally.

This is what I am studying for my Masters's Thesis currently. Hopefully, I can share my finalized thesis mid 2022 with you then. But obviously, this won't help you now. I am currently using rhino and grasshopper to create tool paths. Still waiting on a response from the team at RoboDK on IO control for my robot so I can test simulations without manually turning on and off my extruder at layer changes. Hopefully either I can get some guidance to point me in the right direction or once my classes finish I can devote more time to trying to figure it out.

The extruder is driven by the E value in your Gcode or by an Extruder function. With RoboDK you can customize how you drive your extruder in the post processor.

I recommend you to take a look at this section:
