Abstract
A system for layer-by-layer three-dimensional (3D) printing of a 3D printed object. The system includes a printing component configured to print a plurality of layers to form the 3D printed object, a surface modification component configured to be co-operable with the printing component and configured to apply an appropriate degree of surface roughness to at least one of the plurality of layers after being printed, and a controller configured to identify parameters of each of the at least one of the plurality of layers and configured to control operation of the printing component and the surface modification component, wherein the parameters include the appropriate degree of surface roughness.
