Tangential surfaces to optimize digital manufacturing of complex shapes

Tangential surfaces to optimize digital manufacturing of complex shapes

Lanzara, Emanuela; Capone, Mara

Conference full papers:

The knowledge of geometric-mathematical rules allows to solve several problems about complex systems design and manufacturing. Geometric genesis of surfaces and their properties represent the main basis to solve both constructive and measurement problems. A developable surface can be manufactured starting from a flat strip, using a flexible and non- deformable material. Geometry studies properties that don't change and, therefore, the shape of the strip to obtain a certain configuration after a series of rigid movements. Our goal is to test different approches (Additive Manufacturing vs Subtractive Manufacturing) to manufacture a lamp using a tangential developable surface.
