Abstract

This article reviews the current research status of the large-scale part-slicing printing technology. With the rapid development of 3D printing technology, its applications in manufacturing, healthcare, construction and other fields have become increasingly widespread. However, the build volume of the printer is limited so that directly printing large objects becomes a technical challenge. Breaking down large objects to enable this printing technology not only expands the application scope of 3D printing, but also significantly reduces manufacturing costs, improves efficiency, and supports the realization of complex structures. The current research mainly focuses on the optimization and innovation of model segmentation algorithms, including both traditional methods and new technologies. It has demonstrated significant application value in fields such as architecture and aerospace. The latest research indicates that the segmentation algorithm combined with machine learning can increase printing efficiency by 30% to 40%, and the introduction of multi-material printing technology further expands the possibility of functional integration. These research results not only promoted the development of 3D printing technology, but also provided key technical support for the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry. They have significant academic value and industrial significance.
