用大模型结合几何与材料知识,提前判断3D打印能否满足实际用途。
Task-Driven 3D Printability Assistance via Geometry- and Knowledge-Grounded LLM Reasoning

- 基于几何和材料知识,让大模型推理打印可行性
- 75%打印成功,88.9%成功样本符合任务需求
- 适合非专家用户,提升材料选择准确率至90%
在增材制造中,可打印性通常在几何层面进行评估,以判断CAD或STL模型是否能成功制造;而任务适用性则在打印后评估,判断成品是否满足实际用途。因此,非专家用户常因材料或工艺选择不当,在打印后才发现问题,导致重复打印、材料浪费和挫败感。本文利用大语言模型(LLM)的推理与语言理解能力,结合几何证据和结构化材料/打印机知识,生成可靠的预打印建议。给定STL模型和自然语言任务描述,该框架输出包含可打印性、材料选择、工艺参数、设计建议、风险提示及解释的结构化推荐。我们在包含新手式任务描述的特定STL基准场景上进行了评估,结果表明:在96次物理验证中,75.0%的打印成功,其中88.9%的成功样本满足任务需求。该方法将Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite在材料选择上的准确率从纯LLM的37.5%提升至90.0%。专家评估显示报告质量更高,且打印后反馈能优化对问题案例的推荐。结果表明,用户任务意图、几何证据和结构化材料知识对可靠的任务驱动可打印性辅助至关重要。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Printability assessment in additive manufacturing is typically conducted at the geometry level before printing to determine whether a computer-aided design (CAD) model or stereolithography (STL) file can be successfully fabricated. Task suitability, in contrast, is usually evaluated after printing to determine whether the fabricated part satisfies the requirements of its intended use. As a result, for non-expert users to print functional parts, unsuitable material or process choices may only be identified after fabrication, leading to repeated printing, material waste, and user frustration. To address this challenge, this paper leverages the reasoning and language-understanding capabilities of large language models (LLMs), while grounding the reasoning with geometry evidence and structured material/printer knowledge to generate reliable pre-print recommendations. Given a stereolithography (STL) model and a natural-language task description, the framework generates a structured recommendation covering printability, material choice, process parameters, design guidance, risks, and explanations. We evaluate the framework on focused STL benchmark scenarios with novice-style task descriptions. The proposed method achieves 75.0% printability over 96 physical validation trials, with 88.9% task suitability among successfully printed samples. It also improves Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite material-selection accuracy from 37.5% under pure LLM to 90.0%. Expert evaluation further shows improved report quality, while post-print feedback improves recommendations on selected problematic cases. These results suggest that user task intent, geometry evidence, and structured material knowledge are all important for reliable task-driven printability assistance.
