Abstract: A method for producing a support structure of a 3D model for 3D printing is provided. A method for producing a support according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of: dividing a surface constituting a 3D model into multiple surface patches; classifying respective divided surface patches according to geometric characteristics; and producing supports corresponding to the classified characteristics with regard to respective surface patches. Accordingly, during metal laminate manufacturing, the output stability may be improved while reducing the support producing process time. In addition, the surfaces may be expressed by different colors according to the result of geometric characteristic classification, and the supports may also be expressed by different colors according to the type, thereby playing the role of guide lines such that the user can recognize the shape of the surfaces and the type of supports to be installed on the corresponding surfaces. Moreover, the size of a support tip is determined in view of the thickness of the area in which a support is to be produced, thereby preventing the problem of output quality degradation which would otherwise occur because the support cannot move upwards through an output part.

Abstract: A support sink application method for 3D printing heat dissipation analysis is provided. The support sink application method according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps in which: a support sink application system adds a support sink in order to simulate heat dissipation using a support in a state where a support shape is not generated in a 3D model; the support sink application system performs heat dissipation simulation with the support sink added to the 3D model; and the support sink application system adjusts the support sink on the basis of the result of the simulation. Therefore, the convenience of heat dissipation simulation can be improved by introducing the support sink capable of representing heat dissipation by the support with no support shape. In addition, due to dependency reduction caused by a support change, it is not necessary to reanalyze a target model (shape) even when a support is added/moved/deleted, and thus the convenience of heat dissipation simulation can be improved.

Abstract: Provided is a slicing 2D data-based pattern application method for generating an output code in which the inside of a model is filled with a pattern, so as to reduce a binder usage amount and maintain a strength and a shape in sand binder jetting additive manufacturing. A slicing 2D data-based pattern application method according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of: generating 2D data by slicing an output model; generating an inner pattern in at least one of layers forming an output model in consideration of the set thickness of the layers and the outer thickness thereof and generating an output code by applying the generated inner pattern. Therefore, the cost of producing an additive manufacturing output can be reduced by reducing the binder usage amount through the application of the inner pattern. In addition, reducing the binder usage amount enables a mold to be destroyed with less force than conventionally used, can increase the proportion of molding sand reuse by reducing the binder usage amount, and can reduce recovery treatment costs of the molding sand. Furthermore, casting defects due to increased ventilation can be reduced.
