Abstract

Geometric or 3D modeling playing key role in geometry definition. These modelers evolved from wire-frame models to Boundary representations or CSG models in solid modeling or Bezier spline or Non-uniform rational B-spline representation. After modeling process, using internal representation, part will be post-processed for manufacturing. Variety of postprocessors existing, and using unique G-code standard we producing on CNC machines requested parts. 3D Printers use the same G-Code standards with extensions for more than ten M functions that programmers use for setting 3D printing parameters different than we using for CNC manufacturing. List of M functions varies depend of the manufacturer.
