摘要: 三维打印是逐层逐体素打印,喷头的路径规划是其中的关键组成部分,其至少需要
考虑3 个方面的需求:①喷头必须历经每个需要打印的体素;②同一个体素不能被喷头反复打
印;③尽量减少喷头在位置上的跳转,如必须跳转,那么跳转间隔不宜太大。为此将喷头移动
路径的规划问题转化为旅行商问题并用改进的回溯算法来求解,基于大量实验给出了相关参数
的最佳配置。

Abstract: The key idea of the 3D printing technology lies in the layer-by-layer printing style, where
designing the motion plan of the nozzle is a central constituent. It has at least three requirements: ①
The nozzle has to go through each voxel defining the volume of the given 3D object; ② It’s better not
to go through the same voxel multiple times; ③ The jumping from one voxel to a nonadjacent voxel
should not be encouraged, or at least the jumping gap should be as small as possible. Based on the
observations, the nozzle motion problem is transformed into the famous traveling salesman problem
and then an improved backtracking algorithm used to find the solution. Furthermore, the best
configuration of relevant parameters is given based on extensive experimental results.
