Abstract

The disclosure provides a 3D printing method and device. The 3D printing method of the disclosure includes: obtaining height groups of an object to be printed in multiple different postures relative to a support platform, where different height groups include a height of the object to be printed in at least one direction corresponding to the different postures; obtaining a first height having a minimum height from all of the height groups, and obtaining a second height and a third height orthogonal to the first height according to the first height, where the second height and the third height are minimum heights in their respective directions; and taking directions in which the first height, the second height, and the third height are located as three printing directions of the object to be printed respectively, and printing. The disclosure can achieve a fast printing speed.
