Abstract

Digital processing is the core module of 3D printing technology. In response to the problems of complex system operation, limited adjustable parameters and high configuration requirements of the current traditional 3D printing pre-processing software, this paper studied about 3D printing digital processing. In order to efficiently obtain model geometry contour display and layered slicing data, the research and development of 3D printing pre-processing software is carried out in Windows 10 environment using Python language and VSCode editor, with the visualisation tool VTK as the graphics drawing interface, to realise the fast reading display and slicing operation of STL model files. Based on the analysis of the software requirements and functional requirements, the core algorithms were optimised to perform slicing and tool filling path planning operations on the model, and the final output of G code showed stable and efficient program performance, laying the foundation for the development of fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing technology.
