Automation and optimization of the X-ray based 3D copying process

Goal

Development of efficient algorithms to combine X-Ray based reconstruction and slicing for additive manufacturing to generate replicas of high quality 

Application

Generation of replacas from parts with missing CAD data for restoration or medical applications

Research topic

Data processing from 2D CT projection images to process specific GCode for additive manufacturing and process automatisation in the 3D copying process.

State of the art

Use of individuall machines for 3D scan and additive manufacturing without interaction or adaption

Drawbacks of the State of the Art

Iterative and time-consuming process to generate 3D replicas. 

Concept

Adaption and combination of reconstriction and slicing algotihms towards a plug and play solution for 3D copying
