Abstract
The present invention provides an enhanced setup of a 3D-printing device, especially to a laser powder bed fusion 3D-printing device. It is for this purpose, that data relating to previously printed products are stored in a database. When a new product is to be printed, the features of the new product are matched with features of previously printed products stored in the database. Accordingly, a suggestion for setting-up the 3D-printing device based on corresponding previously printed products and their setup parameters can be automatically determined and applied to the 3D-printing device.
