Abstract
An example device includes: a memory storing instructions; and a processor connected to the memory. The instructions are to cause the processor to: receive predetermined locations of a fluidic input location and fluidic output locations at a three-dimensional (3D) object model; generate respective paths between the fluidic input and each of the fluidic outputs via associated portions of the 3D object model; replace the respective paths with respective hollow connectors that have respective fluidic resistance selected such that each of the fluidic outputs have a predetermined flow rate from the fluidic input to the fluid outputs; and store, at the memory, data indicative of locations and dimensions of the respective hollow connectors, relative to the fluidic input and the fluidic outputs, the data for use by a three-dimensional printer to print a part that includes the fluidic input, the fluidic outputs and the respective hollow connectors.
