Abstract

This article reviews the way adaptive slicing improves quality. Efficiency and strength in 3D printing research at the current stage. This article also reviews the way of adaptive slicing to reduce support research, such as using adaptive slicing to adjust the layer thickness of each print layer. This arithmetic tries as much as possible to reduce the print layer thickness of the printout, then the printing time could be shortened, and so on. Under the condition that the printing can be guaranteed to be successful. At the end of this article, it talks about the future development direction of adaptive slicing in 3D printing. This field can research more in optimizing terms of mechanical properties, such as improving rigidity, toughness, and so on. As well as,this field can also research more in optimization terms of multi-axis 3D printing, such as five-axis 3D printing, eight-axis metal 3D printing, and so on.
