Abstract

A 3D printer system and related methods. The 3D printer system includes a processor and an accessible memory. The accessible memory includes a CAD kernel and a product file that defines a CAD solid model. The 3D printer system is particularly configured to execute the CAD kernel using the processor, process the product file using the CAD kernel to produce the CAD solid model, and produce a solid physical object corresponding to the CAD solid model.
