Interactive 3D visualization of surface roughness predictions in additive manufacturing: A data-driven framework

ArXi:2603.09353v1 Announce Type: new Surface roughness in Material Extrusion Additive Manufacturing varies across a part and is difficult to anticipate during process planning because it depends on both printing parameters and local surface inclination, which governs the staircase effect. A data-driven framework is presented to predict the arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) prior to fabrication using process parameters and surface angle.
