Abstract
A robotic fleet platform includes a fleet resources data store with a fleet resource inventory indicating additive manufacturing systems that can be provisioned with a set of fleet resources. The fleet resource inventory indicates 3D printing requirements, printing instructions, and a status of each additive manufacturing system. Provisioning rules are accessible to an intelligence layer to ensure compliance. The platform receives a request for a robotic fleet to perform a job and determines a job definition data structure defining tasks. The platform determines a robotic fleet configuration data structure that assigns additive manufacturing systems to one or more of the tasks. The platform determines a respective provisioning configuration for each of the additive manufacturing systems. The platform provisions each additive manufacturing system based on the respective provisioning configuration and the provisioning rules. The platform deploys the robotic fleet based on the robotic fleet configuration data structure to perform the job.
