A method of generating a three-dimensional product having a cubic internal structure in a process controlled by a computing device. The method comprises receiving a manufacturing request datum from a user client device, wherein the manufacturing request datum further comprises at least an element of a product definition. The method further comprises defining a lattice volume of the manufacturing request datum, wherein defining the at least a lattice volume further comprises defining at least a lattice cell, wherein the at least a lattice cell is comprised within the lattice volume. The method further comprises determining a response characteristic of each lattice cell of the plurality of lattice cells, wherein determining a response characteristic further comprises simulating the application of at least a force on at least a part of the manufacturing request datum as a function of the product definition. The method further comprises selecting a unit structure.

Methods and systems for generating a three-dimensional product having a cubic internal structure

A method for geometric analysis of a part for manufacture, the method including receiving, by a processor, a computer model of a part for manufacture; receiving, by the processor, a print of the part for manufacture; extracting, by the processor, a semantic datum from the print of the part for manufacture; mapping, by the processor, the semantic datum on the computer model of the part for manufacture; and generating, by the processor, a manufacturing instruction based on the semantic datum mapped on the computer model of the part for manufacture.

Methods and systems for geometric analysis of a part for manufacture

In an aspect an apparatus for analyzing machinability of a part for manufacture, wherein the apparatus comprises a processor. The processor is configured to receive a representative part model of a part for manufacture. The processor may also be configured to extract a semantic datum from the print of the part for manufacture. A machinability datum is determined as a function of the semantic datum. A manufacturing quote is generated as a function of the machinability datum.
