19 Slicing STEP-based CAD Models for CAD/RP Interface

Author Haeseong J. Jee, Byong-Yeol Lee, Hongik University

Source Solid Freeform Fabrication Proceedings, 1999, pp 171-178

Abstract SFF technologies have an ability of creating a physical part directly from its computer model by adding material on a layer by layer basis. One of the problems lies in their current file format for CAD data exchange. Current method using the defacto industry standard STL have at times resulted in problems such as accuracy, redundancy, and integrity in its representing CAD models. In this paper we propose a method of slicing and editing STEP-based RP models for the new data transfer paradigm between CAD systems and RP systems using STEP.. Key words: SFF, CAD, STL, Data Exchange Standard, STEP (Auth abstract) [References: 15]
