Hello, thanks for your issue! The NEPath
toolpath package is able to plan toolpaths by offsetting the outer boundary of a 2D planar. Therefore, if we can transform the toolpath planning problem for 3D surfaces into a curve offsetting problem where the offset direction of every point is specified, the NEPath
package can be applied.
In fact, we used to consider toolpath planning for 3D surfaces as a future work. An idea is as follows:
Another idea, which is more popular in non-planar 3D printing, is:
Thanks for your issue. Please contact me if you have any question or suggestion.
Hello,
Do you think your toolpath code would be easily adapted for 3D surfaces ? For example, for computing (curves) offsets, we could use geodesics heat method, etc.
