Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for calculating a tool path for additive manufacturing, comprising obtaining (S 110 ) a three-dimensional model describing an object to be formed, dividing (S 120 ) the model into a plurality of layers, and analyzing (S 120 ) each layer of in order to obtain at least one outline of each layer. The method further comprises analyzing (S 130 ) each outline to obtain an inside and outside for each outline of each layer. It further comprises determining (S 140 ) a smallest rectangle that encloses each outline, calculating (S 150 ) an infill curve for each rectangle, using a Hilbert* algorithm. The method further comprises overlaying (S 160 ) the outline on its corresponding rectangle, and determining (S 170 ) which parts of the infill curve are on the inside of the outline, thus obtaining a tool path for the outline comprising at least one infill curve and the outline.

Claim (Index 2):
The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising the step of compensating for a tool size for each outline, thus obtaining a tool optimized outline for each outline.
