ABSTRACT
The print 1orientation of the model of 3D printing determines the direction of additive manufacturing process and has a direct influence on the model accuracy and printing efficiency. Based on this problem, this article taken volumes error caused by stair-step-effect, the number of suspension added, the print time of model as optimal objectives and establish an optimization model of which the solution algorithm is designed by using both genetic algorithm and simulated annealing algorithm. After much testing, this designed algorithm has been proved significantly efficient in obtaining optimal solutions and is able to be applied to 3D printing system. The method introduced in this article is more superior in comparison with traditional method.
