A method for manufacturing a three-dimensional object includes converting model data of the three-dimensional object into slice data, sintering powder based on the slice data after the conversion, and manufacturing the three-dimensional object by a layered manufacturing process of stacking a plurality of sintered layers. The method includes a part data correction process of correcting positional information of at least one of mutually adjoining part data of the model data of the three-dimensional object, and laying part data on each other by a predetermined amount of overlap, converting the model data corrected in the part data correction process into slice data, and after forming a sintered layer based on the slice data corresponding to one part, forming a sintered layer based on the slice data corresponding to the other part.

Flank milling checks during a computer automated design process which may include notifying a user when a component geometry option is selected that will result in the component not being flank millable. In some examples, the user is prevented from selecting a geometry option that would result in the component not being flank millable. In some examples, devices, systems, and methods are provided for manufacturing a component with a flank milling process, in which optimized machine instructions are determined that minimize milling machine motion.

An on-demand digital manufacturing platform receives digital design files for a product and analyzes producibility of the product by at least one digital manufacturing technology based on whether a set of attributes of the digital design files satisfies producibility requirements for the manufacturing technology. If the attributes do not satisfy the producibility requirements, the platform generates a modified digital design that satisfies the producibility requirements. A customer can place an order for the product from the platform. In response, the platform selects a target fabrication machine to manufacture the product. The target fabrication machine can be selected based at least in part on a determined match between specifications of the target fabrication machine and fabrication parameters that are associated with manufacturing of the product based on the modified digital design. The modified design can then be sent to the target fabrication machine to manufacture the product.

A computer system can automatically resolve anomalies within an architectural design by receiving a digital architectural design comprising a first furniture sub-component, a second furniture sub-component, and a third furniture sub-component. The system can then identify one or more joints between the various furniture sub-components. After identifying the joints, the system can include identifying an anomaly at the intersection of the joints. The anomaly can be created when the joints fail to create a proper corner. The system can then automatically resolve the anomaly by changing the type of at least one of the joints within the digital architectural design.

A device having at least two grippers (102) for the form-fitting gripping of a bevel gear (1) having a cone face, a heel region, and an axis of rotation (RA). The at least two grippers (102) can be infed radially in relation to the axis of rotation (RA), and each of the grippers (102) has at least one inner region (104) for interacting with the cone face, and a counter holder (103) for interacting with the heel region. Each gripper (102) can have a holder (101) having a changeable angle of attack on an inner region (104) of the holder, and the holder (101) can be movably mounted on the gripper (102) so that it adapts its effective angle of attack in relation to the inclination of the cone face of the bevel gear (1) during radial infeed in the direction of the bevel gear (1).

Methods and systems allow for creating a variable spatial framework for use in designing and manufacturing an architectural component. The spatial framework can define a three-dimensional space having a plurality of boundaries. The system can receive an input to divide the three-dimensional space into multiple independent cells. Each independent cell can comprise an independently executable software object. A plurality of boundaries of the spatial framework can automatically adjust upon receiving an input defining a manufacturing constraint.
