Abstract
A method for evaluating a three-dimensional (3D) object produced by a three-dimensional (3D) object printer includes generating with a scanner a first data file of the 3D object produced by the three-dimensional object printer. The first data file includes data corresponding to an interior surface and an exterior surface of the 3D object. The method further includes comparing the first data file with a second data file. The second data file is used to operate the three-dimensional object printer to produce the 3D object. The method further includes identifying differences between the first data file and the second data file and identifying a process to rectify a defect on the 3D object based on the identified differences to enable evaluation of the production of the 3D object by the three-dimensional object printer.
