Abstract

A method of 3D printing an object includes receiving design information corresponding to an object for which a printed object is to be generated by a 3D printing operation according to a first set of print instructions, generating a plurality of measurement locations, printing successive layers which form the object, measuring the object at the measurement locations to form measurement data, comparing the measurement data with expected measurements of the measurement locations based on the design information, and generating, based on the comparing, deviation information. The measurement locations represent locations of the object to be measured by a measurement device. The deviation information represents deviations between the printed object following completion of the printing, and the object represented by the design information.
