Title:
METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A PRODUCT HAVING LOCALLY SPECIFIC PROPERTIES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001033510
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a product having locally specific properties, the geometric form of which is described by a collection of polygonal basic figures, in particular in STL (structural triangulation language), comprises the following steps: selecting from the above basic figures a face part composed of coherent basic figures, adding to that face part at least one specific property, which during the manufacture of the product is to be given to the part thereof that comprises the above face part, optionally repeating the above process steps for other face parts to be selected, and manufacturing the product on the basis of the then obtained model information by means of a technique adding material in layers or in a die molding process, which includes giving the associated specific property during the building up in layers of at least the part of the product that comprises the above face part or during the injection molding.
