Abstract
Additive manufacturing is an essential solution in the production of parts. Model slicing is an important step of the 3D printing process. The slicing of the layers is the core part of the additive manufacturing because it transforms the 3D model to a 2D profile layer for the printer to manufacture. A novel machine architecture deposits with a helical path. The helical architecture provides a continuous rotation that allows printing continuously without any interruption. Therefore there are no more starting and ending point at each layer. This paper proposes a slicing method compatible with this type of machine. Continuous printing is made as a function of z -level, so at each angle of rotation, the level of z will be incremented. Finally, these disks can be combined as one image to be sent to the ink-jet as a continuous printing. To illustrate this novel slicing methodology a model is sliced.
期刊介绍：
ournal of Machine Engineering is a scientific journal devoted to current issues of design and manufacturing - aided by innovative computer techniques and state-of-the-art computer systems - of products which meet the demands of the current global market. It favours solutions harmonizing with the up-to-date manufacturing strategies, the quality requirements and the needs of design, planning, scheduling and production process management. The Journal'' s subject matter also covers the design and operation of high efficient, precision, process machines. The Journal is a continuator of Machine Engineering Publisher for five years. The Journal appears quarterly, with a circulation of 100 copies, with each issue devoted entirely to a different topic. The papers are carefully selected and reviewed by distinguished world famous scientists and practitioners. The authors of the publications are eminent specialists from all over the world and Poland. Journal of Machine Engineering provides the best assistance to factories and universities. It enables factories to solve their difficult problems and manufacture good products at a low cost and fast rate. It enables educators to update their teaching and scientists to deepen their knowledge and pursue their research in the right direction.
