Selection of Build Orientation for Reducing Surface Roughness with Stereolithography Parts

광조형물의 표면 거칠기 저감을 위한 성형방향의 선정

In general, stereolithography parts is not suitable for master pattern. Because of its bad surface roughness. Therefore, To reduce roughness it requires post-process that is depending on user skill and takes long time to do. This study aims to develop an expert system which can select an optimal build orientation, reduce roughness and shorten post-processing time. Genetic Algorithm was introduced for optimization. A simplified computation model was developed for real-time response. For accurate roughness estimation, mterpolation of experimental data was implemented.
