  • Large format 3D printing augmented with 3D scanning and anomoly tracking feedback
    Patent number: 11198284
    Abstract: The disclosure is directed at a system, apparatus and method for 3D printing an object using an industrial robot; such object is larger and may be more accurate than the print volume and accuracy of the industrial robot that is performing the print. The system is further capable of scanning the irregular 3D surface of the printing platform in which to create the 3D object and adapt the toolpath to print on this surface. The system is further capable of scanning the 3D surface of a specimen that is larger than the print volume of the industrial robot and make a scaled copy larger or smaller. The system is also capable of monitoring the quality of the object being printed while the print is in process.
