Complex Metal Structural Parts 3D Printing

HedraCAM Robot OLP 3D Printing Package achieves optimal processing results within robot hardware limitations through precise path planning, point optimization, and post-processing output — minimizing process defects from point generation to final output.

Challenges

Metal printing process complexity: Extremely demanding trajectory requirements with high precision needs.
Equipment limitations: Program data contains millions of points that standard robot controllers cannot process.

Solutions

1. Flexible post-processing — spline group method: Treats all points as a single spline for smoother, more fluid motion output.
2. Intelligent point generation — equidistant point generation: Solves speed fluctuation issues caused by dense arcs and sparse lines; adjustable point spacing supports adaptation to robot load capacity (e.g., 20mm spacing); deletable point optimization addresses robot point capacity limitations.
3. Multi-program coordination support — subprogram calls: Large projects can be split into multiple subprograms (e.g., 50 programs with 20,000 points each); avoidance point insertion prevents workpiece collisions during program switch transitions.
