Abstract

According to the root cause of principle error in layered manufacturing, an adaptive slicing algorithm was proposed. This algorithm uses a section between upper layer and lower layer as a layered section, and minimizes the characterization of solid surface roughness δ or volume error S without reducing the efficiency of layered manufacturing, while minimizing the principle error. The slicing algorithm is also applicable to slicing solid in three-dimensional finite difference mesh generation. Finally, a three-dimensional finite difference mesh generation process is developed, which uses the middle section of each layer as a layered section. It works well, and the precision of mesh generation is greatly enhanced.
