  • Publication number: 20220308562
    Abstract: Methods and systems enabling commercial opportunities for additive manufacturing workflow management including computerized processing of a plurality of three-dimensional CAD files received and aggregated by the system and organizing the plurality of three-dimensional CAD model files received and aggregated by the system and where the data corresponding to the three-dimensional CAD model(s) geometry contained within the 3D CAD Model files received by the system are analyzed by the system for production criteria. The analyzed 3D CAD Model files and their geometry are then organized by production criteria.

  • Publication number: 20220288858
    Abstract: Methods and systems for producing a three-dimensional object received by the system and organizing a plurality of three-dimensional objects received by the system and where data corresponding to the three-dimensional model(s) received by the system is nested and stacked by the system and compiled with other three-dimensional model data received by the system into tray files that are then transmitted to a manufacturing device for production of the object, using the data to do so, such that the object corresponds directly to the three-dimensional model.

  • Publication number: 20210256580
    Abstract: As Additive Manufacturing technology improves, a significant number of commercial enterprises will adopt Additive Manufacturing technology for at least some aspects of their electronic commerce sales and industrial production capacity utilizing additive manufacturing. Software system, tools and data processing methods therefore pose significant obstacles to the widespread adoption of industrial-scale Additive Manufacturing. As such, computer implemented methods and systems enabling commercial opportunities for both electronic commerce and Enterprise or industrial-scale additive manufacturing (AM) workflow management are both desired and required as an enabling technology for the widespread adoption of Additive Manufacturing, especially at-scale where the larger the volume of throughput, creates more reliance on automation.

  • Patent number: 11010800
    Abstract: Methods and systems for designing and producing a three-dimensional object selection of a base three-dimensional object from a customer device. A base three-dimensional model corresponding to the object is displayed on the customer device, and one or more custom modifications are received. A modified three-dimensional model corresponding to the modified object is prepared and displayed. Once confirmation to produce the modified object is received, data corresponding to the modified three-dimensional model is transmitted to a manufacturing device for production of the object, using the data to do so, such that the object corresponds directly to the modified three-dimensional model.
