US Patent 11914342 Autozoning of additive manufacturing print parameters

A method, medium, and system including determining a material property value to assign to each of the plurality of 3D volume elements, wherein the material property values assigned to the plurality of 3D volume elements are classified into a predetermined number of bins that correspond to a plurality of different additive manufacturing (AM) print parameter sets, generating a plurality of transfer functions to determine relationships between the material property values assigned to the plurality of 3D volume elements and a plurality of desired AM print parameter sets, automatically determining, based on the plurality of transfer functions, an assignment of one of the plurality of different AM print parameter sets to each of the plurality of 3D volume elements, and validating the determined assignments of the plurality of different AM print parameter sets for the plurality of 3D volume elements based on the plurality of transfer functions.
