ZomeFab：使用Zometools实现经济高效的混合制造
ZomeFab: Cost-effective Hybrid Fabrication with Zometools
摘要：
近年来，由于消费级三维（3D）打印机的广泛使用，个性化制造受到了相当大的关注。然而，这种3D打印机具有缺点，例如生产时间长和输出尺寸有限，这阻碍了大规模快速原型制作。在本文中，对于大型物体的时间和成本效益的制造，我们提出了一种混合3D制造方法，该方法将3D打印和Zometool构造集结合起来，Zometool构造集是一种紧凑，坚固和可重复使用的结构，用于填充制造。所提出的方法通过仅打印薄的3D外壳来显著降低制造成本和时间。此外，我们设计了一个优化框架，通过优化几个标准，包括可打印性，材料成本，和Zometool结构的复杂性，以生成一个Zometool结构和打印表面分区。此外，我们证明了所提出的方法的有效性，通过制造各种大规模的三维模型。
英文摘要：
In recent years, personalized fabrication has received considerable attention because of the widespread use of consumer-level three-dimensional (3D) printers. However, such 3D printers have drawbacks, such as long production time and limited output size, which hinder large-scale rapid-prototyping. In this paper, for the time- and cost-effective fabrication of large-scale objects, we propose a hybrid 3D fabrication method that combines 3D printing and the Zometool construction set, which is a compact, sturdy, and reusable structure for infill fabrication. The proposed method significantly reduces fabrication cost and time by printing only thin 3D outer shells. In addition, we design an optimization framework to generate both a Zometool structure and printed surface partitions by optimizing several criteria, including printability, material cost, and Zometool structure complexity. Moreover, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method by fabricating various large-scale 3D models.
