AI Failure Detection in 3D Printing

ยท 27 min read

Introductionโ€‹

The technology of 3D printing has revolutionized the manufacturing process by enabling the production of intricate designs and personalized parts with relative ease of operation. However, like all technologies, 3D printing has its fair share of challenges. Print failure is one of the most significant, leading to material waste as well as a loss of time and money.

AI Failure Detection in 3D Printing

Fortunately, advanced artificial intelligence (AI) systems have come up with new techniques for early detection and prevention of such failures, which can be done by alerting users, modifying the print depending on the intensity of the error, or even stopping it completely before wasting more resources. Here we will go through some AI-based failure detection solutions for 3D printing provided by Obico, Bambu Lab, Creality, Octoprint Nexus AI, and OctoEverywhere.
