Description

STL format 3D model support structure generation method based on material self-supporting property
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of 3D printing support structures, in particular to a method for generating an STL-format 3D model support structure based on material self-supporting property.
Background
The 3D printing adopts a basic forming principle of layer-by-layer accumulation of materials, a model is discretized into a series of two-dimensional section information according to a certain direction (generally, a Z-axis positive direction) and a certain thickness, a processing path is determined according to profile information of each layer, and then the materials are formed in a layer-by-layer accumulation mode according to the path generated by each layer. In some printing methods, the current printing layer of the model is stacked on the basis of the previous layer, and the previous layer of the model plays a key role in positioning and supporting the current layer. If the current printing section is larger than the section for supporting the current printing section and the section of the previous layer does not have a reasonable supporting structure, the suspended part of the model collapses or deforms, and the printing process and the precision of the model are influenced, so whether a reasonable supporting structure is added for the corresponding area to be supported or not can directly influence whether the model can continuously print and the final precision of the model. The 3D printing method requiring the support structure includes widely applied Stereo Lithography Application (SLA) and Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing.
The support structure generation method is described here by taking the FDM 3D printing method as an example, and the method is also applicable to other 3D printing methods that require support. 3D printing based on FDM technology is part formation by solidification build-up of liquid plastic material (PLA, ABS etc.) extruded by a nozzle, and the liquid printing material has viscosity, so not all suspended surfaces need to be supported. In the component shown in fig. 8, the inclination between the first surface (4) and the Z axis is small, so that the printing can be directly performed without adding a support, and the inclination between the second surface (5) and the Z axis is large, so that the printing can be performed only by adding a support. In FIG. 9, the included angle between the third surface (6) and the printing platform is alpha, and only when alpha satisfies that theta is not less than alpha and not more than 90 degrees, no support is added to the surface; when 0 ≦ α < θ, the face needs support. Theta is a printable critical angle, and the specific value of theta is different according to different printers and printing materials.
The STL format file is the most common file type in the current 3D printing field, and is a factual standard format in the 3D printing field. As shown in fig. 10, the STL file is obtained by triangulating the surface of the CAD model with a series of small triangular patches, which have a fixed connection relationship. The data stored in the STL file is vertex coordinate data of the series of triangular patches, normal vector data of the triangular patches, and adjacency data between the triangular patches.
The shapes of current support structures fall into two categories, one is to create a fully dense column-like support structure below the support area. For example, widely used open source 3D printing software, Cura slicing software, adopts such a support structure, and the generation method is: taking the model of fig. 8 as an example, after the regions to be supported (surface two and surface three) are identified in the printing process, a columnar support with a cross section having the same shape as the projection shape of the supporting surface is generated right below the supporting region, and the lowest part of the columnar support is in contact with the printing platform, as shown in fig. 11. The method has the advantages that the density of the supporting structure is high, and the supporting strength is high; the defects are that the amount of the supporting consumables is large, consumables are wasted, and the printing time is long.
The second category is to create a sparser support structure below the area to be supported. For example, the open-source 3D printing system meshimixer slicing software adopts such a support structure, and the generation method is as follows: as shown in fig. 12, in the printing process, after the region to be supported is identified, points are sampled equidistantly on the region to be supported, the sampled points are called leaf nodes of the tree, then a cone is made in the direction of the printing platform by taking the leaf nodes as vertexes, a new node is generated at the intersection of the cone and the cone, and the vertex of the cone is connected with the new node to form a branch. As shown in FIG. 13, p1、p2For two sampling points in the region to be supported, s is the new node generated, p1s、p2s is a newly generated branch. The method has the advantages of small supporting consumable quantity and short printing time; the disadvantage is poor stability of the support structure.
The method is characterized in that Cura and Meshmixer support structures are combined by West-North university fern, natural and unrestrained and the like to construct a binary tree type inclined plate support structure with a rectangular cross section, and the generation method comprises the following steps: similar to the sampling process for generating the tree support, in the printing process, after the area to be supported is identified, equidistant sampling is performed on the area to be supported in the form of parallel line segments, and the sampling line segments are called leaf nodes of the tree. As shown in FIG. 14, |1、l2Two leaf nodes, with1、l2Making triangular prisms for the bus toward the printing platform, wherein in each triangular prism, leaf nodes (l)1Or l2) The angle between the two inclined planes and the printing platform is larger than theta (printable critical angle). l3Is the new node created. With l1、l3Making a quadrangle with parallel sides by2、l3The other quadrangle (the thickened figure in the figure) is made for the parallel side, and the two quadrangles are the inclined plate supporting bodies. Fig. 15 shows an experimentally generated swash plate support structure. The method has the advantages that the crotch branch density can be reduced, the supporting structure is optimized, and the advantages are obvious under the condition that the area to be supported is a large plane; the disadvantage is small areaAnd the region to be supported with a more complex shape has a poorer support generation effect.
