Support structures and interfaces

According to one example there is provided a non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to: obtain an object model; analyse the object model; obtain characteristics of an interface agent; generate a modified object...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	According to one example there is provided a non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to: obtain an object model; analyse the object model; obtain characteristics of an interface agent; generate a modified object model comprising a support structure and an interface between the support structure and the object, the interface being such that after generation of a 3D printed green part and after sintering thereof, the support structure may be released with a predetermined force; and controlling a 3D printer to generate a 3D printed green part based on the modified object model.
